Abstract
A highly sensitive and specific method for the determination of trace levels of pesticides in river water has been developed. The method is based on reversed-phase (C18) solid phase extraction, followed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry-selected-ion monitoring. Recoveries a t the 0.5- or 2.5 mug/l fortification level were between 79 and 98%. T he detection limits were 0.05 mug/l for chlornitrofen and 0.01 mug/l f or other pesticides.
