Hs. Rathore et al., SPOT-TEST ANALYSIS OF PESTICIDES - DETECTION OF CARBARYL AND MANCOZEBIN WATER, Water, air and soil pollution, 97(3-4), 1997, pp. 431-441
A new spot test is developed using sulphanilic acid-sodium nitrite-sod
ium hydroxide, 8-hydroxyquinoline and alkaline hexacyanoferrate (III)
as colouring reagents for the sensitive and selective detection of car
baryl at mu g levels in environmental samples. A already know, spot te
st for dithiocarbamates, is extended for the selective detection of ma
ncozeb at mu g levels in its formulations and water. Copper (II) chlor
ide-acetic acid is used as a colouring reagent.
