Abstract |
A sampling and analytical method for organophosphorus pesticides was developed using a combined filter/XAD-2 sorbent sampler and gas chromatography with flame photometric detection. The method was evaluated for 19 organophosphorus pesticides based on joint OSHA/NIOSH criteria. Samples were stable for 30 days of storage under either ambient or refrigerated conditions. The 19 compounds studied can be determined over a range of 0.1 to 2 times their exposure limits with an accuracy of ±25% of the true value 95 times out of 100. |
