General description
Carbofuran belongs to N-methylcarbamate class of chemicals used to control soil-dwelling and foliar-feeding insects on agricultural crops. Carbofuran acts by inhibiting cholinesterase enzyme activity.[1]
Application
Carbofuran may be used as a reference standard for the determination of the analyte:
• In well water samples by high-performance liquid chromatography employing a variable-wavelength ultraviolet detector set.[2]
• In fruits and vegetables by monoclonal enzyme immunoassay and high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection.
