Shivani and Abdalla, I was rather thinking in multiresidue analysis of several type of pesticides in vegetable matrices.
Armando, I agree with you in that pKa is the key. This situation can be managed with more or less success when the type of pesticides of samples are known. However, the problem increases with field samples of unknown record. In these cases, could not be the pH control counterproductive? What is your opinion?
Does anybody have more suggestions/opinions? Thanks in advance!
