Summary An automated procedure is described for simultaneous UV detection at three different wavelengths and electro chemical detection in series of some residual herbicides. UV spectra of nine compounds of different compound groups are presented. Liquid-liquid extraction with dichloromethane and an enrichment of about one thousandfold has been used. Recovery rates after enrichment and detection limits of four s-triazine, three phenyl urea herbicides, metazachlore and metamitrone in river and drinking water are shown. It is concluded that the herbicides examined can be detected at levels between 10ng l−1 and 50ngl−1, without the necessity of derivatisation or clean-up processes.
