Improved method for high pressure liquid chromatographic determination of chlorophacinone in mouse tissue.

A simplified method is described for the determination of chlorophacinone, 2-[(p-chlorophenyl)-phenylacetyl]-1,3-indandione, in homogenized mice. Chlorophacinone is extracted with acetonitrile. After Florisil cleanup, the extract is injected into a high pressure liquid chromatograph for reverse phase chromatography on a polar Lichrosorb NH2 (10 micron) column, with a mobile phase of acetonitrile-water (80 + 20). An injection containing 70 ng chlorophacinone produces 1/2 scale peaks at 254 nm with a full scale absorbance of 0.1 unit, an order of magnitude improvement over the sensitivity reported earlier with a 280 nm detector. Six homogenized mice samples and six spiked homogenized mice samples were quantitatively analyzed for trace levels of chlorophacinone by this method. Recoveries from spiked samples, as determined by peak height measurement, were greater than 95%. Mean retention time for the chlorophacinone peaks in all samples was 6.05 +/- 0.05 min. Chlorophacinone levels determined in homogenized whole mouse samples ranged from 0 to 63 ppm.

High pressure liquid chromatographic determination of sodium fluoroacetate (compound 1080) in canine gastric content.

A sensitive high pressure liquid chromatographic method was developed for the determination of sodium fluoroacetate (compound 1080) in canine gastric content. The procedure involves extraction of 1080 with water, methyl ethyl ketone, and dilute base, followed by sample cleanup using octadecylsilane bonded phase cartridges and derivatization in ethyl acetate sodium with O-p-nitrobenzyl-N-N'-diisopropylisourea (PNBDI). The compound was chromatographed on a 10 micrometer silica column, and ultraviolet absorbance at 254 and 280 nm was measured. Recovery was greater than 95% for standard 1080 and in the 70-90% range for spiked samples (1-50 ppm).

Electrocardiographic changes on sublethal poisoning of Vacor and Silmurin to Bandicota bengalensis.

A single sublethal dose of Vacor (1 mg/rat) or Silmurin (50 microgram/rat) brought about dissimilar changes in cardiac physiology of bandicoot rats. Delayed myocardial repolarization and stress on cardiac tissues were noticed. Elevation of S-T segment above the isoelectric axis diagnostic of recent myocardial infarction was observed. Vacor and Silmurin induced differential changes in heartbeat; Vacor poisoning resulted in bradycardia, whereas Silmurin tachycardia. It is inferred that Vacor deaths may be due to bradycardia associated with atrioventricular block and that of Silmurin to delayed myocardial repolarization and tachycardia.

[Toxicological risks from industrial pesticides. Preliminary results of a study].

An examination of various commercially available pesticides was made in an evaluation of the potential risks presented by phytopharmaceuticals. It was found that insecticides anticryptogamic products, and weed-killers are most commonly used. Insecticides mainly contain organophosphoric compounds, followed by organochlorates, carbamates, and organic sulphur compounds. Anticryptogamic products are primarily composed of dithiocarbamates, followed by inorganic copper and sulphur compounds. Herbicides are mostly represented by the triazines, followed by phenoxycarboxylic acid derivatives, carbamates, and urea derivatives. Lastly, most pesticides fall into the IIIrd and IVth toxicological classes.
