Method Validation for Pesticides Identification

  • Conference paper
  • First Online:

Abstract

Method validation for identification of some pesticides by gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC-MS) was subject of internal validation procedure. Method performance criteria were investigated on standard sample measurements: selectivity, linearity, precision, limit of detection, and robustness. The validated method will be further used to identify the pesticides of interest in forensic analysis.
