Abstract

A gas-liquid chromatographic technique was applied to the separation of pyrrolnitrin and its derivatives. The simultaneous use of a flame detector and an electron capture detector made possible the distinction between the nitro derivatives of pyrrolnitrin and the other metabolites. The metabolites could be readily quantitated with the electron capture detector, offering a much more sensitive assay than the flame detector.
