Flow injection analysis element selective detectors

Element selective detectors Element selective detectors applicable in pesticide residue analysis include electron capture detector (ECD), electrolytic conductivity detector (ELCD), halogen-specific detector (XSD), nitrogen phosphorus detector (NPD), flame photometric detector (FPD), pulsed flame photometric detector (PEPD), sulfur chemiluminescence detector (SCD), and atomic emission detector (AED). To cover a wider range of pesticide residues, a halogen-selective detector (ECD, ELCD, XSD) in conjvmction with a phosphorus- (NPD, FPD), nitrogen- (NPD), and/or sulfur-selective detector (FPD, SCD) is commonly used. A practical approach is to spht the column flow to two detectors that reduces the number of injections however, the reduced amoimt of analyte that reaches the detector must be considered.
