TS No. 188: ANALYTICAL METHOD FOR DETERMINATION OF MULTI-RESIDUE TRIAZOLE FUNGICIDES IN PALM OIL MATRICES

Triazole is a class of systemic fungicides containing 1,2,4-triazole moieties, which is used to control various fungal diseases on fruit, vegetable, legume and grain crops for both pre- and postharvest applications (Manclúset et al., 2008). The modes of actions of these fungicides are through xylem systemic and broad spectrum activities by blocking the ergosterol biosynthesis pathway, which leads to toxic sterol accumulation and results in fungal cell death.
