· High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method for Analysis of Procymidone .
Procymidone is a pesticide and fungicide with the chemical formula C 13 H 11 Cl 2 NO 2 . It is typically used to kill unwanted ferns, nettles, and fungi in lupins, grapes, stone fruit, and strawberries.
Procymidone can be retained and analyzed using the Newcrom B stationary phase column. The analysis utilizes an isocratic method with a simple mobile phase consisting of water and acetonitrile (MeCN) with a formic acid buffer. Detection is performed using UV.
