High-performance liquid chromatography of pirimiphos methyl and five metabolites
Abstract
Pirimiphos methyl is an organophosphorus insecticide which is rapidly metabolised by plants and animals to several modified triesters and free hydroxyprimidines. A method is described for the determination by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography of pirimiphos methyl and its five major metabolites in plasma and urine. Separations were performed by isocratic and gradient elutions from short columns packed with SAS-Hypersil, a relatively new column packing.
