The expressed purpose of the Pesticide Analytical Manual is to publish analytical methodology used by the FDA in enforcing pesticide tolerances. To understand FDA’s application of methodology published in the manual, it is important to
Recovery of Chemicals Through Method 401 (E1-E2 + C1 + DL1) (methanol extraction, cleanup with partitioning and charcoal/Celite column, HPLC with post-column derivatization and fluorescence detection)
Multiresidue methodology by definition requires determinative steps capable of separating analytes from one another so each can be detected and measured individually. Both gas-liquid chromatography (GLC) and high performance liquid
