- Scope
- This European Standard specifies a spectrometric method for the determination of residues of dithiocarbamates and thiuram disulfides, which release carbon disulfide under the described conditions (e.g. mancozeb, maneb, propineb, thiuram, zineb). It is applicable to such compounds in and on fruits and many vegetables and also in and on cereals and other foodstuffs of plant origin. Only the quantification of the whole group is possible using this method but not the identification of individual compounds. Generally the maximum residue limits (MRLs) are expressed in terms of carbon disulfide.
