Quantification of pesticide residues is expensive and mostly inaccessible to farmers, health authorities and supervisory entities.This paper describes a simple, economical and simple method for quantifying carbofuran in tubers. The differential pulse voltammetry method for carbofuran was validated for quantification in potato. A Britton-Robinson buffer was used as an electrolyte supporting solution, glassy carbon as working electrode, Ag/AgCl as reference electrode and platinum as counter electrode. The pesticide was extracted from the potato through a solid-liquid partition method and the results obtained by voltammetry were compared with UV-Vis spectroscopy deducing that the voltammetric method generates accurate and reliable results for carbofuran quantification in tubers. The proposed method was successfully applied to the determination of carbofuran in potato samples with satisfactory results. These results indicate the use of carbofuran in the town of Ventaquemada in the department of Boyaca, Colombia. This carbofuran detecting method can be used as a tool to monitor the use of this chemical compound in potato tubers.","PeriodicalId":41142,"journal":{"name":"Revista Corpoica-Ciencia y Tecnologia Agropecuaria","volume":"18 1","pages":"275-284"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2017-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42800613","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the fatty acid concentration differed between herbaceous and shrubby legumes compared to non-leguminous species, and decreased with regrowth age in both groups. The herbaceous legumes evaluated had a higher C18:2/ C18:3 proportion than shrubby legumes, which could in turn result in a higher conjugated linoleic acid (cla) content in milk fat. The legume Cajanus cajan showed the highest (p<0.05) cla (C18:3) and cla precursors content in the three regrowth ages evaluated, suggesting that its use as bovine feed in dual-purpose systems can result in higher c9 t11 cla concentrations in milk fat compared to other species.","PeriodicalId":41142,"journal":{"name":"Revista Corpoica-Ciencia y Tecnologia Agropecuaria","volume":"18 1","pages":"217-232"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2017-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68410765","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The extraction was carried out with a Matrix solid-phase Dispersion (mspd) technique. Gas chromatography with micro electron capture detector (μ-ecd) was used for the quantifi-cation of carbofuran residues in the samples, using the external standard method. Results obtained from this method were then compared with the Soxhlet technique used for samples contaminated with the commercial product Furadan® 3SC. Different parameters affecting the mspd extraction process were evaluated, such as the stationary phase, the solvent and elution volume in soil samples trea-ted with Furadan® 3SC to a final concentration of 50 mg/kg-1 of active ingredient (carbofuran). The recovery rate was used as a response variable. The best carbofuran extraction conditions for these matrices were obtained with 0.2 g of macerated sample with 0.8 g of silica gel as adsorbent in a 1:4 sample/adsorbent ratio. Samples were extracted on a cartridge with 5 ml of hexane-acetone at a 8:2 ratio as an elution solvent.

It was estimated an emission of 368 Gg CO2/year (1 Gg = 10⁹ g) from sales of fuels, equivalent to 718 kg CO2/person/year.
