Control of the residue level of imazalil in treated seeds of cereals and corn
A method for assessing the quality of etching wheat, rye, oats, barley and maize seeds with fungicides containing imazalil has been developed. The method is based on the quantitative determination of imazalil in seeds using gas-liquid chromatography. The average value of the determination of the active substance is 89,4-93,1 %. The introduction of correction coefficients provides results corresponding to the specified rate of consumption of the drug. The completeness of seed etching is calculated for 1 ton of seed.
