GC/ECD or a halogen-specific detector (HSD) (Method 8080) is the technique recommended by EPA s Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response for determining a- and [3-endosulfan and endosulfan sulfate in water and waste water at low-ppb levels (EPA 1986a). At these low concentrations, identification of endosulfan residues can be hampered by the presence of a variety of other pesticides. Consequently, sample clean-up on a Florisil column is usually required prior to analysis (EPA 1986a).
