Herbicides are used to control unwanted plants, they are also known as weedkillers. Insecticides are used to kill insects. Fungicides are used to kill parasitic fungi. Pesticide is a more generic term that includes herbicides, fungicides and insecticides in its definition. All are heavily used in agriculture.

By using HPLC, many different pesticides can be separated and their retention characteristics controlled using the Newcrom BH mixed-mode column. It can be used with different organic media such as acetonitrile (ACN) or methanol (MeOH). By varying the concentration of organic modifier and using different buffers like sulfuric acid (H2SO4), ammonium formate (AmFm), or formic acid, separation of desired pesticides can be achieved.

Paclobutrazol (PBZ) is a synthetic triazole compound with the chemical formula C₁₅H₂₀ClN₃O. It is used to control plant growth as an antagonist of the plant hormone gibberellin. Through reducing reducing internodal growth, it causes stronger stems, greater root growth, and earlier fruitset. It can also reduce frost sensitivity in plants.

Abamectin is a insecticide with the chemical formulas  C48H72O14 and C47H70O14. It is also used to control fire ant populations. In veterinary cases, it is used to deworm horses as well as an antihelmintic.

Propanil is a contact herbicide with the chemical formula C₉H₉Cl₂NO. It is one of the most widely used herbicides in America. It works as an inhibitor of photosynthesis and CO₂ fixation in weeds.

Iprodione is a hydantoin fungicide and nematicide with the chemical formula C₁₃H₁₃Cl₂N₃O₃. It is used on a wide variety of crops that are affected by fungal diseases such as botrytis bunch rot, brown rot, and Sclerotinia.  Approval of using it is different across the world.

Dursban is a highly toxic organophosphate with the chemical formula C₉H₁₁Cl₃NO₃PS. It works through interrupting the electrochemical processes in nerves.  This leads to a build-up of acetylcholine, which leads to paralysis and eventual death.

Pentachlorophenol is a manufactured chemical with the chemical formula C₆HCl₅O. It is most often used as herbicide, insecticide, fungicide, algaecide, and disinfectant. Exposure to it can cause damage to liver, kidney, blood, lungs, eyes, skin, and mouth. It is classified as a probable human carcinogen.

Fenvalerate is synthetic pyrethroid insecticide with the chemical formula C₂₅H₂₂ClNO₃. It is used against a wide range of pests, partially due to it’s moderate mammalian toxicity following short-term and acute exposure. It is the most toxic to bees and fish.  Upon contact, it may irritate skin and eyes.

Metalaxyl (UV), Propoxur, Paclobutrazol, Abamectin, Propanil, Iprodione, Chlorpyrifos-methyl (Dursban), Pentachlorophenol, Fenvalerate can be retained and analyzed using the Newcrom B stationary phase column. The analysis utilizes an isocratic method with a simple mobile phase consisting of water and acetonitrile (MeCN) with a formic acid buffer. Detection is performed using UV.
