Abstract
Synthetic pyrethroids were launched in 1970's, and since then are widely used for pest control due to the advantage of selective activity and relatively lower mammalian toxicity compared to other classes of pesticides. In the present manuscript, the latest developments in sampling methods and quantitative analysis of synthetic pyrethroids are reviewed. Analysis of pyrethroids chromatographic methods viz., GC, HPLC, SFC, GC-MS, GC-MS/MS, LC-MS, and LC-MS/MS was discussed.
