      A new spray reagent for selective detection and quantification of dichlorvos in bluish tinged maize grains by TLC-spectrophotometry
      A. MOHAMMAD*, A. MOHEMAN (*Analytical Research Laboratory, Department of Applied Chemistry, Faculty of Engineering and Technology, Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh-202 002, India; alimohammad08@gmail.com)

      J. Planar Chromatogr. 24, 113-115 (2011). TLC of dichlorvos on silica gel with cyclohexane - acetone - methanol 16:6:1. Detection by spraying with 2 % sodium hydroxide solution and subsequent spraying with 2 % thiobarbituric solution followed by heating at 90 °C for 10 min. The hRf of dichlorvos was 50. The limit of detection was approximately 18 µg/zone. Spectrophometric analysis of dichlorvos was performed by measuring the absorbance of the sample solution. The linearity was in the range of 50-350 µg/mL dichlorvos. On alkaline hydrolysis dichlorvos forms dimethylphosphoric acid and dichloroacetaldehyde; the latter reacts with 2-thiobarbituric acid to give a sharp pink spot. The reagent is selective for dichlorvos, and does not react with other organophosphorus, organochlorine, carbamate, and synthetic pyrethroid insecticides.

      Anal. Proc. 21, 432-434 (1984). Application of the Mean List Length concept to identification of unknown drugs (MLL concept: determination for a given substance, for a given system or combination of systems, how many other substances from the total population would qualify for identification. The shorter the MLL the better is the system for systematic toxicological analysis. With MLL -1 the individual substance can be identified unequivocally against all other substances in the set.) 100 basic and neutral drugs. 8 systems.
