Abstract
Two methods based on gel permeation chromatography (GPC) [size exclusion chromatography] for the analysis of traces (ng/kg) of nitrogen and phosphorus containing pesticides (like triazines or phosphothionates) from marine sediment samples are compared: A macro GPC with Biobeads SX-3 and a chromatography on a high-performance (HP-GPC) column with UV-detection. Results for eight triazine herbicides, two triazine metabolites, the phenylurea derivative linuron, two acetanilides and two organophosphorus compounds are given. Concentrations obtained with the HP-GPC are compared with those obtained with a macro GPC approach in an earlier study.
