Environmental fate of insecticides on the biological matrices as a function of temperature: A pilot study

Abstract

Toxicology division of Forensic Science Labs FSLs frequently receives samples containing insecticides Due to pendency of medico legal cases biological samples are often stored for some time ie from the time of collection until analysis The role of temperature and putrefaction that may inevitably interfere with analysis results which is often ignored in such cases In the present study an attempt has been made to produce evidences by differentiating Thin Layer Chromatographic TLC results of the insecticides Carbofuran and Carbaryl 1naphthyl methylcarbamate as a direct consequence of changes in the preservation methods of samples Research must be extensively done taking into consideration of the factors like temperature humidity duration of time etc so as to support studies on better preservation methodologies of Forensic samplesKeywords Insecticides Carbofuran Carbaryl Toxicology Temperature Putrefaction Chromatography
