Abstract:The persistence pattern and risk assessment of profenofos and triazophos in okra (Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Moench) and cropped soil were studied in the present study. The insecticides were applied twice at 10 days interval @ 500 and 1000 g a.i./ha. Residues were quantified at 0, 1, 3, 5, 7, 10, 15 and 20 days of second application using GC equipped with Flame Photometric Detector (FPD). The average initial deposits of triazophos (1.838 mg/kg) in okra fruits were higher than profenofos (1.418 mg/kg) at the r… Show more
