Determination and validation of a simple high-performance liquid chromatographic method for simultaneous assay of iprodione and vinclozolin in human urine.
A method based on solid-phase extraction (SPE) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was developed for the simultaneous determination of 3-(3,5-diclorophenyl)-5-ethenyl-5-methyl-2,4-oxazolidinedione (vinclozolin) and 3-(3,5-diclorophenyl)-N-(1-methylethyl)-2,4-dioxo-1-imidazolidinecarboxamide (iprodione) in human urine. Urine samples containing vinclozolin and iprodione were collected by solid phase extraction using C(18) cartridges. The chromatographic separation was achieved on a Spherisorb ODS2 (250 mm x 4.6 mm, 5 microm) column with an isocratic mobile phase of acetonitrile-water (60:40, v/v). Detection was UV absorbance at 220 nm. The calibration graphs were linear from 30 to 1000 ng/mL for the two fungicides. Intra- and inter-day R.S.D. did not exceed 2.9%. The quantitation limit was 50 ng/mL for vinclozolin and 30 ng/mL for iprodione, respectively.
