Abstract

Abstract A collaborative study was conducted on a high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method for determining rotenone in formulations. One liquid and 4 dust samples, containing other rotenoids and pesticides, with rotenone guarantees ranging from 0.75% to 20% were analyzed by 16 laboratories. Peak height measurements were used by 14 laboratories while 8 laboratories used integrator area measurements. Samples were extracted on a rotary shaker for 1% h with dioxane. An aliquot was analyzed using reverse phase HPLC and UV detection at 280 nm. Coefficients of variation ranged from 2.47 to 3.19% for peak height determinations and from 2.56 to 6.00% for peak area determinations. One collaborator analyzed the samples by the official infrared method for a comparison. The HPLC method has been adopted official first action.
