Application developed by using a Fisons GC 8000 chi omatogi aph where the two columns were installed and coupled via a moving capillary stream switching (MCSS) system. The chi omatogi aph was equiped with a flame-ionization detector on the MCSS system outlet and a Flame-photometric detector on the main column outlet, and a split/splitless injector. 

The primary method for detecting methyl parathion and metabolites in biological tissues is gas chromatography (GC) coupled with electron capture (BCD), flame photometric (FPD), or flame ionization detection (FID). Sample preparation for methyl parathion analysis routinely involves extraction with an organic solvent (e g., acetone or benzene), centrifugation, concentration, and re suspension in a suitable solvent prior to GC analysis. For low concentrations of methyl parathion, further cleanup procedures, such as column chromatography on silica gel or Florisil are required.

Ethylenethiourea (ETU) is a toxic decomposition product/metabolite of alky-lenebis(dithiocarbamates). This compound could be generated during processing of treated crops at elevated temperature. Different chromatographic methods to determine the residue levels of ETU have been published. After extraction with methanol, clean-up on a Gas-Chrom S/alumina column and derivatization (alkylation) with bro-mobutane, ETU residues can be determined by GC with a flame photometric detector in the sulfur mode. Alternatively, ETU residues can also be determined by an HPLC method with UV detection at 240 nm or by liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS) or liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) (molecular ion m/z 103). ...

In multi-residue analysis, an analyte is identified by its relative retention time, e.g., relative to aldrin when using ECD or relative to parathion or chlorpyrifos when using a flame photometric detection (FPD) and NPD. Such relative retention times are taken from corresponding lists for the columns used. Further evidence for the identity of an analyte is provided by the selectivity of the different detectors (Modules D1 to D3), by its elution behavior during column chromatography (Modules Cl and C2) and in some cases even by the peak form in a gas chromatogram. In a specific analysis for only some individual analytes, their retention times are compared directly with the corresponding retention times of the analytes from standard solutions. 

Oxime carbamates are not directly amenable to gas chromatography (GC) because of their high thermal instability, which often leads to their breakdown at the injection port or in the column during analysis. Analysis of oxime carbamates by GC with sulfur detection or flame photometric detection involves oxidation of the intact insecticides or alkaline hydrolysis to form the more volatile but stable oxime compound. Enzymatic techniques have been reported for the analysis of these compounds. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) has been used to determine aldicarb and its sulfone and sulfoxide metabolites and methomyl in water, soil, and sediment samples. 

Ishikawa et al. [3] developed procedures to determine the trialkyl and triaryl phosphate esters in sediment, involving extraction with dichloromethane (for water) or acetone (for sediment), followed by gas chromatography using a flame photometric detector and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry after clean-up through a Florisil column. 

The analysis of organosulphur compounds has been greatly facilitated by the flame photometric detector [2], Volatile compounds can be separated by a glass capillary chromatographic column and the effluent split to a flame ionization detector and a flame photometric detector. The flame photometric detector response is proportional to [S2] [3-6]. The selectivity and enhanced sensitivity of the flame photometric detector for sulphur permits quantitation of organosulphur compounds at relatively low concentrations in complex organic mixtures. The flame ionization detector trace allows the organosulphur compounds to be referenced to the more abundant aliphatic and/or polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons. 

In a method described by Bates and Carpenter [8] for the characterization of organosulphur compounds in the lipophilic extracts of marine sediments these workers showed that the main interference is elemental sulphur (S8). Techniques for its elimination are discussed. Saponification of the initial extract is shown to create organosulphur compounds. Activated copper removes S8 from an extract and appears neither to create nor to alter organosulphur compounds. However, mercaptans and most disulphides are removed by the copper column. The extraction efficiency of several other classes of sulphur compounds is 80-90%. Extracts are analyzed with a glass capillary gas chromatograph equipped with a flame photometric detector. Detection limit is lg S and precision 10%. 

The Oxamyl in this extract is then determined by gas chromatography using on-column reaction with trimethylphenyl ammonium hydroxide, the derivative so formed being determined by a flame photometric detector operated in the sulphur mode. Both Oxamyl and Oxamyl oxime in the soil react with trimethylphenyl ammonium hydroxide to form the same methoxime derivative (CH3)2NCOC(SCH3) -NOCH3. 

Addison and Ackman [69] have described a direct determination of elementary yellow phosphorus in mud in which the phosphorus is extracted with benzene or isooctane. Gas chromatographic separation is achieved on a 2mx3mm column packed with 3% OV-1 or SE-30 on Chromosorb W maintained at 100 or 120°C respectively. The carrier gas was helium (80ml m 1). A flame photometric detector with a 526nm filter at 200°C was employed. Down to lpg of phosphorus could be determined. 

Chromatographic methods have been applied with hydridization. Jackson et al. [98] used a commercial purge and trap apparatus fitted to a packed gas chromatographic column and flame photometric detector to achieve a O.lng detection. Purge and trap procedures followed by boiling point separations and detection by spectrophotometric methods yield detection limits in water of between 0.01 and lng. Detection of SnH emission by flame emission gives the greatest sensitivity.
