Abstract

A gas chromatographic method for the analysis of nine organo‐chlorine pesticides in wildlife plasma is described. Reversed‐phase solid phase extraction is utilized to extract the organochlorine pesticides from plasma. This is followed by a normal phase solid phase extraction clean‐up as the pesticides are recovered by elution with hexane:ethyl ether (1:1) and quantified by gas chromatogra‐phy/electron capture detection. Method limits of detection range from 7.0–25 μg/L. The mean recovery for all pesticides is 81%.
