Abstract

A simple, rapid and selective spectrophotometric method was developed for the determination of carbendazim in environmental samples. The developed method is based on the oxidation followed by the formation of orange coloured chromogen complex by the reaction of carbendazim with ferric chloride and 1,10-phenanthroline which absorbs maximally at 470 nm. The analytical parameters and their effects on the reported method are investigated. Beer’s law was obeyed in the range 5.0-70 μg mL–1 with correlation coefficient (r) 0.979. The molar absorptivity, Sandell’s sensitivity, detection and quantification limits were also calculated. Interference study was carried for other pesticides and pollutants. The results of the analysis were validated statistically and the method was applied to the determination of carbendazim in various environmental samples.
