Ck. Jain et I. Ali, DETERMINATION OF PESTICIDES IN WATER, SEDIMENTS AND SOILS BY GAS-CHROMATOGRAPHY, International journal of environmental analytical chemistry (Print), 68(1), 1997, pp. 83-101
The determination of pesticides and their degradation products by gas
chromatography has been reviewed and evaluated. The review covers the
determination of organochlorine, nitrogen containing, organophosphorus
and other pesticides in various water bodies, sediments and soils. Th
e sources of pollution, sampling procedures, extraction, purification
and preconcentration techniques and other gas chromatographic conditio
ns for pesticides determination have been discussed. The various gas c
hromatographic conditions used for the analysis of different pesticide
s are summarized in tabular form.
