      Radiometric strategy to track nanopesticides: An important approach to understand the fate, mechanisms of action and toxicity
      Vanessa TAKESHITA*, G. MUNHOZ, A. ESPIRITU, V. LUIZ, L. FERNANDES (*Center of Nuclear Energy in Agriculture, University of Sao Paulo, Av. Centenario 303, 13416-000, Piracicaba, SP, Brazil, vanessatakeshita@usp.br)

      Trends Anal. Chem. 165, 117156 (2023). Review of the use of radiolabeled pesticides to track nanoformulations in biological and environmental scenarios and the application of TLC for evaluating the mobility and degradation of pesticides and nanopesticides. The paper described TLC as tool to quantify the metabolites generated in the biodegradation study.

      Detection of amitraz, a formamidine‑based pesticide using chromogenic spray reagent by thin‑layer chromatography
      K. MULANI*, S. KHILLARE, S. GHUMATKAR, R. JAGTAP (*Directorate of Forensic Science Laboratories, Mumbai, MS 400098, India, kbchemorg@gmail.com)

      J. Planar Chromatogr. 35, 643-646 (2022). HPTLC of amitraz in visceral tissue on silica gel with hexane - acetone 4:1. Detection by spraying with 10 % sodium hydroxide solution, followed by heating at 80 °C for 10 min. The plate was then removed and kept for attaining room temperature, followed by spraying with freshly prepared sodium nitrite (1%) in acidic media. Right after, alkaline solution of curcumin (1% in sodium hydroxide solution) was sprayed. The hRF value for amitraz was 63.

      Review of thin layer chromatography in pesticide analysis: 2016-2018
      J. SHERMA, F. RABEL* (*ChromHELP, LLC, 136 Progress Ave., Woodbury, NJ 08096, USA, f.rabel@comcast.net)

      J. Liq. Chromatogr. Relat. Technol. 41, 1052-1065 (2019). Review of the following topics for the period of November 1, 2016 to November 1, 2018: sample preparation for TLC pesticide analysis; lipophilicity and retention studies for the study of biological activity; new reagents for pesticide detection; HPTLC-effect directed analysis on the surface of the layer; TLC-Raman spectrometry for the analysis of thiabendazole, triazophos, and phosmet residues; TLC analysis of radiolabeled pesticides; methods for the separation, detection, and qualitative and quantitative determination of pesticide residues; determination of pesticides in commercial products and the use of TLC for pesticide degradation studies. The review highlighted the isolation, characterization, and determination of less hazardous and less toxic biopesticides from plants, bacteria, fungi, and soil as the most active application area of pesticide TLC today.

      Chromogenic spray reagent for the detection and identification of amitraz in biological materials
      K. MULANI*, B. KAMBLE, V. CHANDEGAONKAR, H. DESHPANDE (*Regional Forensic Science Laboratory, Aurangabad (MS), 431002 India, kbchemorg@gmail.com)

      J. Planar Chromatogr. 32(1), 51-53 (2019). TLC of amitraz in visceral tissues (stomach, intestine, liver, spleen, and kidney) on silica gel with hexane - acetone 4:1. Detection by spraying with 10 % sodium hydroxide solution, followed by heating at 80 °C for 10 min. The plate was then removed, kept to attain room temperature and sprayed with 5 % chloranil solution. The hRF values were between 49 and 51. The zones were stable for 8 h.

      Estolide triglycerides of trewia nudiflora seed oil
      R. MADRIGAL, C. SMITH

      Lipids 17, 650-655 (1982). For preparative separation silica plates were used with hexane - ether 6:4. For separation of hydrogenated oils into their various components, multiple development (4 or 5x) TLC was carried out with ether - benzene 1:99 followed by ether - benzene 3:97. Analytical TLC components were visualized by charring with sulfuric acid-dichromate or with iodine vapors. reparative TLC: bands were located by spraying with ethanolic dichlorofluorescein, followed by viewing under UV. The components of the seed oil of trewia nudiflora and mallotus phillipinensis were chromatographed and compared.
