Abstract
Abstract A convenient and sensitive reversed-phase high performance liquid Chromatographie method has been developed for the determination of perraethrin [3-phenoxybenzyl (±)- cis,trans -3-(2,2-dichlorovinyl)-2,2-dimethylcyclopropanecarboxylate] insecticide. Various isocratic and gradient mobile phases, consisting of acetonitrile:water (CH3CN:H2O) and methanol:water (CH3OH:H2O) solvent systems at two flow rates, were tested to separate and quantify the Isoners of permethrin using octadecylsilyl (ODS) (Regis 5μ m) and octylsilyl (OS) (RP-8, 10 μ m) bonded columns. The optimal mobile phase for perraethrin using the ODS column was 70:30 (v/v) CH3CN:H2O mixture at flow rates of either 1.0 or 1.5 mL/min. The measurement was done with a UV detector at 200 nm and 50°C. The OS column gave a less satisfactory separation than the ODS. Gradient elution systems examined did not improve the iso-meric separation of perraethrin. Using the method developed, deposit levels obtained on various sampling units during a perra...
