Manual of Pesticide Residue Analysis

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has prepared a manual of pesticide residue analysis dealing with samples of blood, urine, human tissue, and excreta, as well as water, air. soil, and dust.

The Food and Drug Administration [FDA] Pesticide Analytical Methods Manual QJ and the Environmental Protection Agency [EPA] Manual for Environmental Analysis (2) describe procedures that have been used for many years. Two of the commonly applied techniques are liquid-liquid partitioning and column adsorption chromatography. These approaches are used to isolate lipohilic and moderately polar residues for primary identification and quantitation with GLC. An evaluation of the number of pesticide residues that were satisfactorily analyzed by this approach was published by McMahon and Burke (3). When one looks at the data it can be seen that the highly polar and water soluble residues do not fit into the analytical scheme very well. In an attempt to rectify this problem, FDA is modifying the multiresidue method...
