Abstract

This chapter demonstrates the versatility and feasibility of coupled-column reversedphase liquid chromatography (LC/LC) for the rapid, selective, and sensitive determination of pesticides in environmental water samples. The work includes the setup and application of three different methods, covering the wide polarity range of pesticides as well as various LC/LC approaches and the important parameters and aspects to be considered in method development.
