Methodology for estimation of carbosulfan in rice, wheat and water samples

Y.Suneetha, V.Harikrishna, N.V.S.Naidu

A simple, rapid, sensitive and accurate spectrophotometric method is developed for the determination of carbosulfan in water samples and grains. The method is based on the formation of coloured species upon coupling their hydrolysis productwith diazotized 4-aminobenzaldehyde, exhibiting maximum absorption at 484nm. The method obeys BeerÂ’s law over the concentration range 0.5-12µg/ml.
