Abstract
The synthetic pesticide profenofos is a member of organophosphate insecticide compounds. It is an important synthetic insecticide and has a diversified role in agriculture. During the last decade, profenofos was frequently misused in homicidal, accidental, and suicidal poisoning cases. Since then, a large number of visceral samples have been received for toxicological chemical analysis. Thin-layer chromatography (TLC) and high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) were the preferred methods of choice. By observing the results of toxicological analyses, the conclusion can be drawn that profenofos plays a major role in poisioning. So we developed a new reagent which was found to be a selective spray reagent for profenofos in routine analysis by HPTLC.
