title: Liquid chromatographic determination of carbofuran in technical and formulated products: collaborative study.
abstract: A liquid chromatographic (LC) method for the analysis of technical and formulated carbofuran samples was evaluated in a collaborative study. Carbofuran is determined by reverse phase LC, using a water-methanol mobile phase and acetophenone as internal standard, and detected at 280 nm. Twelve samples, 5 formulations and technical matched pairs, were analyzed by 17 collaborating laboratories. Accuracy and variability of results are typical of large LC data sets. The method has been adopted official first action.
