Ys. Wei et al., DETERMINATION OF THE PESTICIDE CARBARYL BY CHEMICAL DEOXYGENATION MICELLAR-STABILIZED ROOM-TEMPERATURE PHOSPHORESCENCE, Talanta, 41(10), 1994, pp. 1617-1621
This paper presents a convenient determination method for carbaryl in
polluted water by micellar-stabilized room temperature phosphorescence
with Na2SO3 as oxygen scavenger. The effect of various experimental c
onditions on the determination of carbaryl is discussed in detail. The
analytical curve of carbaryl gives a linear dynamic range of 2 x 10(-
7)-6 x 10(-5) mel/l., and a detection limit of 2 x 10(-7) mel/l. A rec
overy of 90-100% was obtained for 0.05-0.1 ppm carbaryl.
