Analysis of carbamate insecticides in foodstuffs using chromatography and immunoassay techniques

摘要

An overview is given of the trace determination of carbamate insecticides in foodstuffs using chromatographic and immunoassay techniques. Emphasis is placed on the use of clean-up methods and the liquid-chromatographic determination of carbamates from fruits, vegetables and other food matrices. Multi-residue methods and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometric techniques are discussed and some examples presented. Recent applications are also given of immunoassay techniques, including the use of ELISA and immunoaffinity columns.
