Abstract
This study presents Carbosulfan determination by a novel, robustic, mobile, inexpensive, and sensitive spectrophotometric method is developed for the determination of the carbamate pesticide carbosulfan in water and grains. An extractive method, which is based on alkaline hydrolysis of carbosulfan into phenol followed by coupling with diazotized 4- methyl aniline in alkaline medium. Yellowed coloured species (λ max 475 nm) can be extractable in to chloroform, which make reaction more sensitive with same λ max. Beer's law is obeyed over concentration range of 0.5-10μg/ml. Molar absorptivity and Sandell's sensitivity were found to be 2.292 x 104 l mol-1cm-1 and 0.0166 μg cm-2 respectively. Method has been satisfactory applied for carbosulfan in various environmental samples.
