The invention relates to the technical field of
analytical chemistry, and discloses a method for determining the
glyphosate content in water by
high performance liquid chromatography. The method comprises the following steps: preparing a standard substance series solution and a
quality control sample solution covering a predetermined concentration range; performing physical and chemical pretreatment on the target
water sample to obtain a purified sample. Then, respectively injecting the
purified water sample and the standard substance solution into a chromatographic
system for separation, and collecting original chromatographic signals;
retention time and
peak area parameters of a
glyphosate characteristic chromatographic peak are extracted, a quantitative calibration relation is established by using
standard product data, and accordingly, the
peak area of a target
water sample is converted into a preliminary result of
glyphosate concentration. And finally, introducing a
quality control sample to carry out
quality control verification, carrying out validity judgment on the preliminary result according to the generated quality control index, and outputting a final glyphosate content measured value. According to the method, the accuracy and reliability of a measurement result are ensured, and the interference risk caused by a complex
water sample matrix is reduced.
