Quantitative analysis of triazine herbicides in environmental samples by using high performance liquid chromatography and diode array detection combined with second-order calibration based on an alternating penalty trilinear decomposition algorithm

Molecularly imprinted polymers by reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer precipitation polymerization for preconcentration of atrazine in food matrices

“…The most frequently used methods for the determination of atrazine are high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) [3,4] and gas chromatography (GC) [5,6], which always involves in traditional sample pretreatment procedures, such as solid phase extraction (SPE) and solid phase microextraction (SPME). The main including reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization, metal-catalyzed atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP), nitroxide-mediate polymerization (NMP) and iniferter, due to their intrinsic advantages over conventional free radical polymerization, such as producing well-defined polymers with predictable molecular, low polydispersity, controlled composition and functionality [17].…”

Herbicides and the Aquatic Environment

“…Bortoluzzi et al (2006) found the presence of this product in surface water adjacent to tobacco crops. The presence of clomazone in water and soil samples have been reported in the literature not only in Brazil but also in other countries such as Spain (Nevado et al, 2007), Italy (Palmisano & Zambonin, 2000), China (Li et al, 2010), Uruguay (Carlomagno et al, 2010) and United States (Gunasekara et al, 2009). …”

Design of molecularly imprinted TiO2/carbon aerogel electrode for the photoelectrochemical determination of atrazine

“…With these healthy concerns in mind, there is a growing need for environmental monitoring of atrazine. Currently, the determination of atrazine mainly relies on high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), gas chromatography (GC), gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and HPLC-MS [3][4][5][6][7]. Although these techniques may provide efficient determination, they are expensive, timeconsuming, solvent waste-producing and require highly trained personnel as well as complicated sample preparation usually involving the pre-concentration step prior to the analysis, which limit their application in routine analytical practice.…”
