title: [Determination of residual trifluralin in the herbal drug Mentha piperita L].
abstract: A HPLC/UV method was worked out to determine the residues of the herbicide trifluralin in the vegetable drug of the peppermint (M. piperita L.). The yield of the method, determined in model samples, was at least 70%, the determination limit of the method being 0.07 mg.kg-1. The content of trifluralin residues in the vegetable drug of the peppermint plant after application of the preparation Treflan 48 EC (in a dose of administration of 2 kg.ha-1) for the treatment of the growth in a small-plot experiment was below the detection limit of the analytical method.
