In this paper the efficiency of a method for the separation and identification of pesticides in lanolin is presented. Theses pesticides belong to the organophosphorous and synthetic pyrethroids families. After the gel permeation chromatography, pesticides are separated from lanolin into two fractions corresponding to the two families, which simplify subsequent analysis by gas chromatography.

organophosphorous (op) pesticides are used frequently in agriculture, particularly in asian countries over the past decades. poisoning by these agents, either as acute or chronic in these nations, is a serious health problem. op pesticides residue in fruits and vegetables that may not induce early clinical features, could also affect the human health. therefore, medical and health professionals...

BACKGROUND Organophosphorous pesticides are the most popular pesticides used in agriculture. As acetylcholinesterase inhibitors, organophosphorous pesticides are toxic organic chemicals. The control and detection of organophosphorous pesticide residue in food, water, and environment therefore plays a very important role in maintaining physical health. A sensitive, rapid, simple chemiluminescenc...

In this study, the efficiency of a clean-up method by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) for the separation of pesticides from lanolin is analyzed. The pesticides analyzed belong to two different families, organophosphorous and synthetic pyrethroids. Lanolin, a standard mixture of the pesticides, and a lanolin-pesticides mixture are injected in a GPC column. The recoveries and elution times fr...

Organophosphorous and organochlorine pesticides, which were banned or restricted in the US and in Europe years ago, are still applied in India to control pests affecting pulses and wheat. Their simple application, efficacy, and economic return may explain the popularity of these pesticides in Indian agriculture. Unfortunately, organophosphorous and organochlorine pesticides are in general very ...

Organophosphorous compounds have been employed as pesticides and chemical warfare nerve agents. Toxicity of organophosphorous compounds is a result of excessive cholinergic stimulation through inhibition of acetyl cholinesterase. Clinical manifestations include cholinergic syndromes, central nervous system and cardiovascular disorders. Organophosphorous pesticide poisonings are common in develo...

This work reports the analytical application of surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) in the trace analysis of organophosphorous pesticides (trichlorfon and glyphosate) and model organophosphorous compounds (dimethyl methylphosphonate and o-ethyl methylphosphonothioate) bearing different functional groups. SERS measurements were carried out using Ag nanocubes with an edge square dimension ...
