title: Analysis for carbamate insecticides and metabolites.
abstract: Of the more conventional pesticidal chemicals, the carbamate insecticides pose some unique problems relative to residue analysis. Most of these compounds are unstable under conditions normally used for GLC analysis and require special attention if this technique is to apply to the carbamates. Moreover, the carbamates are commonly metabolized to products which are toxicologically significant and which must be included in any analytical considerations. These and other problems inherent in carbamate residue methodology are discussed in this report along with technique currently utilized or having potential as sound procedures for the analyses of carbamate insecticides.
