Notes:
In this paper we introduce a novel procedure for the analysis of insect juvenile hormones and describe the principal steps involved in this method. Due to the low concentration of these hormones in insects, careful purification of samples before analysis is necessary. Biological samples are purified by solvent partition and reversed phase high pressure liquid chromatography, then analysed by gas chromatography mass spectrometry using a spectrometer equipped with a data acquisition system. By this procedure 100 pg of insect juvenile hormone could be detected in biological extracts.
