title: Review of advances in the thin layer chromatography of pesticides: 2006-2008.
abstract: Applications of thin layer chromatography and high performance thin layer chromatography for the separation, detection, qualitative and quantitative determination, and preparatire isolation of pesticides and their metabolites are reviewed for the period from July 1, 2006 to November 1, 2008. Analyses are described for a variety of sample types and pesticide classes. In addition to references on residue and formulation analysis, studies such as pesticide-structure relationships, identification and characterization of plant pesticides, metabolism, degradation, mobility, and lipophilicity are covered. Future prospects for pesticide thin layer chromatography are also considered.
