Determination of glyphosate and aminomethylphosphonic acid in natural water using the capillary electrophoresis combined with enrichment step

2005

A previously elaborated capillary electrophoresis (CE) method used for the determination of glyphosate and aminomethylphosphonic acid (AMPA) was slightly modified in order to improve the sensitivity. However, detection limits attained (5 μg mL−1 for glyphosate and 4 μg mL−1 for AMPA) were still not satisfactory for analytical purposes, thus the addition of a preconcentration step before the CE analysis was proposed. AMBERLITE®IRA-900, a strong anion-exchange resin, was used to preconcentrate both analytes in environmental aqueous samples. The experimental conditions optimised in a previous work were readapted, by decreasing the eluent concentration due to CE limitations. Satisfactory result…
