A New Extractive Spectrophotometric Method for the Determination of Oxydemeton methyl in Relation to its Environmental and Toxicological AnalysisBy D. K. Sharma, Rajinder Kashyap, Naresh K. Verma, Nisha Sharma
Abstract: In view of the wide agricultural use of oxydemeton methyl insecticide and its associated toxic effects, it has been determined in the soil, water and foodstuffs to assess its environmental relevance. A new, simple and sensitive extractive spectrophotometric method has been developed for the purpose. It is based on microwave-assisted alkaline hydrolysis of insecticide to form 2-ethylsulfinyl-ethyl mercaptan and transformation of the latter through reaction with carbon disulphide and nickel(II) …

Soil Adsorption Study of Thiram on Four Indian Soils by Extractive SpectrophotometryBy D. K. Sharma, Aditi Gupta, Rajinder Kashyap
Abstract: Concern about the environmental impact of an extensive use of pesticides has prompted research into the environmental fate of these agents which is strongly influenced by the interactions between the pesticides and soil. With a view to studying the fate of thiram fungicide in soil and the extent of surface and groundwater contamination, the soil-adsorption of thiram on four Indian soils of different soil characteristics has been studied by an …
