Abstract:
An analytical procedure was developed for rapid determination of sulfonylurea herbicides in water or soil. Samples were prepared by solid-phase extraction using polymeric sorbents in cartridges and analyzed by liquid chromatography with photodiode array detection. Recoveries were consistent for all sample matrixes tested and were generally > 85%, except for tribenuron methyl (75%). Detection limits were < 100 ng/L for water samples.

Sampling Methods: Sample Types
Sampling materials are classified into three main types: solid, liquid, and gas.
Solid samples include a variety of substances, such as sediments from water bodies, soil, metals, and biological tissues. Two standard methods for extracting sediments from water bodies are grab sampling and piston coring. Grab sampling involves using a device to collect a discrete sediment sample from the bottom of a water body with minimal disturbance. Grab samples do not always represent the entire area due to...

Sample Preparation for Analysis: Overview
Sample preparation is an essential step in the analytical process. It involves preparing a sample so that it can be analyzed accurately. The goal is to extract the analyte, the substance you want to measure, from the sample while removing any components that may interfere with the analysis. Sample preparation techniques vary depending on the physical state of the sample.
