Abstract

Modern agriculture makes use of chemical pesticides to increase the crop productivity so as to meet the daily needs of uncontrolled population growth. These increase the productivity  neglecting the fertility of soil and food quality, hence risking the health of human beings including animals. Fenpyroximate is a kind of acaricide which attacks and kills mites and decreases  the growth of larvae. A method is established for the detection of fenpyroximate and stop excessive use of pesticide. After performing several tests on various wavelengths, the  λmax for the detection of fenpyroximate was 435 nm for azo dye. Limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) was found to be 0.687 μg  mL-1 and 2.083 μg mL-1, respectively.  Furthermore, molar absorptivity, Sandell′s sensitivity were calculated to be 2.3 × 10-7 mol-1 cm-1 and 1 × 10-5 μg cm-2, respectively. The azo dye follows Beer′s law in the range 5 μg to 14 μg  in 10 mL that can be easily detected by using spectrophotometric analysis. This method is very sensitive, low cost and less time consuming. The present method is applied successfully in  various vegetables (i.e. apple, cucumber, potato, spinach, etc.) soil and water samples.
