Abstract
Simultaneous HPLC determination of bromoxynil, ioxynil and dichlobenil , three arylnitrile herbicides, and their metabolic products in soil e xtracts and microbiological media is described. Limits of detection (L ODs) ranged from 0.56 to 3.97 ppb. Slight modification of the mobile p hase composition allowed determination of 13 other aromatic nitriles. Assay of aromatic nitrile hydratase, amidase or nitrilase activities i s possible by the method developed.
