Simultaneous estimation of tribenuron-methyl and its major metabolites by high-performance liquid chromatography.
A rapid reversed phase HPLC method was developed for the separation of tribenuron-methyl and its three major metabolites (methyl-2-aminosulphonyl benzoate, 4-methoxy-6-methyl-2-methylamino-1,3,5-triazine and saccharin) using RP-18 column and methanol-water (60:40, v/v) as mobile phase. The limit of detection of all the four compounds was 0.01 ppm.
