Antifouling booster biocides in coastal waters of Panama: First appraisal in one of the busiest shipping zones

A baseline study for antifouling booster biocides in coastal waters of Panama is presented. Solid Phase Extraction (SPE) was used for extraction and Liquid Chromatography tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was applied for the quantification of irgarol 1051, diuron, (2-thiocyanomethylthio)benzothiaz...

Description
Summary:A baseline study for antifouling booster biocides in coastal waters of Panama is presented. Solid Phase Extraction (SPE) was used for extraction and Liquid Chromatography tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was applied for the quantification of irgarol 1051, diuron, (2-thiocyanomethylthio)benzothiazole (TCMTB), 4,5-dichloro-2-n-octyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one (DCOIT) and dichlofluanid. TCMTB, DCOIT and dichlofluanid were not detected in any seawater sample, while irgarol 1051 and diuron were found in four out of thirteen areas (
