ABSTRACT
A fast, selective and precise gas chromatographic method for simultaneous determination of pesticide residues
(chloryiriphos-methyl, cypermethrin, thioziklam, triflumizole and uprodion) in plant products has been developed by
using an electron capture detector and filled capillary columns (2m x 2mm) with 3 % SE-30 and 3 % OV-17 at programmed
change of temperature.
Keywords: analysis, multi-component pesticide residues, GC, fruit plants.
