Determination of methomyl in insecticidal formulations by reversed-phase liquid chromatography: collaborative study
1996
Conaway, J.E. Jr
A reversed-phase liquid chromatographic (LC) method for methomyl was studied. Twelve collaborators analyzed 3 solid and 4 liquid formulations on both a Zorbax octadecylsilane (ODS) column and a similar column of their choice. Methomyl and the internal standard were separated by using a mobile phase consisting of approximately 8% acetonitrile in water, which was monitored at 254 nm. The coefficient of variation on the Zorbax column ranged from 0.70 to 5.23%, while the range on the collaborators' house columns was 1.08 to 6.01%. Results with the Zorbax ODS column fell within the 5% 2-tail limits, and 10 of 11 collaborators' results fell within these limits on house columns. The LC method for determination of methomyl in insecticidal formulations has been adopted first action by AOAC INTERNATIONAL.
