Analysis of Fluroxypyr-meptyl on Zodiac HST OG Column

Fluroxypyr-meptyl is a synthetic auxin herbicide used to control broad-leaved weeds in cereals, pastures, and non-crop areas. It disrupts plant growth by mimicking natural auxins, leading to weed death. It is effective against herbicide-resistant weed species.

Fluroxypyr-meptyl can be analyzed using a Zodiac HST OG column under isocratic conditions with a mobile phase of water, acetonitrile (MeCN), and sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄). Detection is performed using UV at 220 nm, ensuring high resolution and peak symmetry. The Limit of Detection (LOD) varies based on instrumentation and laboratory conditions.
