Abstract:
Pentachlorophenol (PCP) is used as a herbicide in agriculture and as an insecticide for termite control. Because of the apparent hazard associated with its usage, there is a need for an efficient and economic on-site screening method. A 5-min on-site test has been developed for the detection of PCP based on the OnTrak format, a successful Roche on-site test format for drugs of abuse, utilizing the principle of latex agglutination immunoassay. The test detects 1 ppm of PCP in soil samples.
