Extraction spectrophotometric determination of maneb with 1-(2'-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol (PAN).
A rapid, sensitive, simple and selective spectrophotometric method has been developed for the determination of micro-quantities of maneb (manganese ethylenebisdithiocarbamate) after extraction of the manganese-PAN complex in isobutyl methyl ketone (MIBK). The complex absorbs strongly at 550 nm. Beer's law is obeyed over the concentration range 0.37-3.75 microg/ml. The molar absorptivity was found to be 4.1 x 10(4) l. mole(-1) . cm(-1). The developed method has been applied to the determination of maneb in commercial formulations, synthetic mixtures, grain and in the presence of various other dithiocarbamates.
Methods of analysis of dithiocarbamate pesticides: a review
This review incorporates a brief introduction to methods for the analysis of dithiocarbamate pesticides followed by a more detailed discussion of individual methods. Determination of dithiocarbamate residues from foodstuffs, water and commercial samples and in various environmental samples using different techniques is a key feature.
