Separation and Identification of Certain Organophosphorous Pesticides Residues in Vegetable

Abstract

A rapid and sensitive method using impregnated thin layer chromatography (TLC) for detection and estimation of organophosphorous pesticides residues from vegetable has been developed. Compared to ordinary thin layer chromatography this method is faster more sensitive and accurate. The correlation with the Impregnant (p-cresol) and the pesticides have been determined by Infrared Spectroscopy.
