High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method for Analysis of Carbendazim on Primesep 100 by SIELC Technologies
Separation type: Liquid Chromatography Mixed-mode SIELC Technologies
High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method for Analysis of Carbendazim
Carbendazim is a fungicide widely used to control a variety of fungal diseases in crops.
arbendazim acts by inhibiting the development of fungi. It disrupts microtubule formation during mitosis, which prevents cell division and growth of the fungi.
Uses
Agricultural Applications:
Used on a variety of crops including fruits, vegetables, and cereals.
Controls a wide range of fungi, including those causing powdery mildew, leaf spots, and root rot.
Post-Harvest Treatment:
Used to treat fruits and vegetables after harvest to prevent spoilage during storage and transport.
Seed Treatment:
Applied to seeds before planting to protect against soil-borne fungal infections.
Carbendazim can be retained, separated and analyzed using a Primesep 100 mixed-mode stationary phase column. The analysis employs an isocratic method with a simple mobile phase comprising water, acetonitrile (MeCN), and sulfuric acid as a buffer. This method allows for detection using UV 200 nm.
