Carbon-based quantitation of pyrethrins by supercritical-fluid chromatography.
All six insecticide active ingredients in pyrethrum extract were quantified by supercritical fluid chromatography and carbon calibration. Allethrin is a suitable reference compound for carbon calibration and pyrethrins calibrations. Carbon quantification in SFC is also applied to pyrethroids (phenothrin, permethrin, cypermethrin, fenvalerate and deltamethrin) and alkanes. Halogen substitution on pyrethroids requires halogens on the reference calibration compound. The method was applied to commercial extracts.
