Abstract
A simple method of column extraction for Coumaphos (active principle u sed against varroasis affecting honeybees) residue determination in ho ney is presented. Extraction involves sample dispersion on diatomaceou s earth (Extrelut) and a subsequent eluition by Dichloromethane. Recov ery trials gave satisfactory results. Compared to traditional liquid-l iquid fractioning, the method offers significant advantages such as sm aller consumption of organic solvents, glassware, and of time.
