ANALYTICAL METHOD DEVELOPMENT AND VALIDATION FOR ESTIMATION OF CYPERMETHRIN BY UV SPECTROSCOPIC METHOD

Abstract

Poisons could be chemicals, pharmaceuticals, solvents, insecticides, metal salts, corrosive liquids (acids, alkalis), natural toxins, or gases like carbon monoxide. Pure chemicals and other complex natural materials can also make up some toxins. The method employed in the study was used to estimate Cypermethrin, an organophosphate compound. Cypermethrin is an agricultural pesticide can cause significant harm to human health if its residue builds up in food. The purpose of this work was to create a UV approach for the quantitative analysis of cypermethrin. This work used ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry to analyse cypermethrin, having an absorption range of 220–230 nm, which is a powerful tool for elucidating structural details. The methods implemented were linear, specific, and accurate, demonstrating the reliance of the suggested methods. Due to the short time of analysis, the developed methods outperformed other previously established methods.
