New Application Note from Horizon Technology

Horizon’s International application team has developed a new method for combatting challenging pesticides using solid phase extraction.

This method will improve recoveries as well as increase throughput for difficult samples.

Methamidaphos is problematic to extract in traditional SPE and LLE methodologies due to its extreme hydrophilic nature making exchange into a non-polar solvent or absorption onto a solid phase sorbent very difficult resulting in extremely low recoveries of this compound.

This application note was developed to demonstrate the extraction of five organophosphate compounds Monocrotophos, Diazinon, Malathion, EPN, and Methamidaphos using one solid phase extraction method with one pre-treatment step of sodium chloride NaCl.

This application note can be found under the following categories: International Applications, Drinking Water Applications and Ground/WasteWater Applications.
