摘要：A sensitive Enzyme Linked ImmunoSorbent Assay (ELISA) based on polyclonal antibodies was tested in a water sampling exercise at field scale. In the absence of deethylatrazine (DEA), results indicate that the method is useful for the determination of atrazine concentrations between 0.1 and 10 micrograms/liter. When compared with gas chromatographic analysis, ELISA overestimates atrazine concentration. If these tests are used as a semiquantitative screening tool, this tendency for overprediction does not diminish the test�s usefulness. The test appears to be a valuable method for monitoring triazine herbicides in water samples from wells and soil water suction cups.
