A general view about the determination of pesticides in the FIA method
ology is presented. The review is dealing with the different published
analytical procedures divided into three groups: a) homogeneous syste
ms(only solutions) in which the reported procedures are classified acc
ording to the used detector; b) heterogeneous systems (solid-liquid or
liquid-liquid); and c) a third group is presented with the papers dea
ling with the FIA assembly as the sample pretreatment for the injectio
n into a chromatograph. A table with the most relevant analytical info
rmation of each of reported procedure is also presented.
