Summary
High-performance liquid chromatography with UV detection was used to determine the residues of flupoxam (a new herbicide) in soils. Soil samples were extracted with aqueous methanol. The soil extracts were cleaned up and concentrated using two solid phase extraction columns: a polymeric stationary phase based on a polystyrene-divinylbenzene resin (Lichrolut EN) and alumina. Recovery experiments were performed at ppb levels in spiked soil samples. The recovery was 76±1.7% for flupoxam in the range 5–100 μg kg−1 of soil. Limit of determination was 3 μg kg−1.
