Status new methods

CIPAC Methods, when proposed by a company or an organization get a first status (draft method) when they are discussed in a CIPAC Meeting. After having been accepted, they receive the status "provisional" in a following CIPAC Meeting, and finally they are accepted as full methods.

In addition, methods may be revised, especially in case of CIPAC MT's. Release of revised methods follow the same procedure by CIPAC. 


DAPF document: Summary of New & Revised CIPAC MT methods

The purpose of the doucment was created and is maintained by DAPF to provide an overview of actual and older/superseded versions of MT methods. 
This document is published on the CIPAC website as CIPAC sees the benefit to support registration applicants, authorities and regulatory bodies as well as control labs on the status of the most recent methods and versions. CIPAC is encouraging the use of the actual methods & versions. However, the German DAPF has created it and is fully responsible for its content and any amendment.
Further information about the German DAPF you find here.

14-hydroxylated brassinosteroid
The reversed phase HPLC method (CIPAC/5311) for the determination
of 14-hydroxylated brassinosteroid in TK and SL formulations was
accepted as provisional CIPAC method with additional justification for
the Horrat >1 and for the eliminations.
Provisional
687
Difenoconazole
The capillary gas chromatographic method with split injection, using
1,3,5-triphenylbenzene as internal standard (CIPAC/5324), for the
determination of difenoconazole in TC, EC and WG formulations was
accepted as provisional CIPAC method considering the data sets
using hydrogen or helium as eluent gas with the need for a stricter
description of the method.

Provisional

373
Ethephon

The extension of the reversed phase HPLC method 578 (CIPAC/5330)
to the determination of flumioxazin in SC and WG formulations
was accepted as provisional CIPAC method.
Provisional 
xxx

The normal phase HPLC method (CIPAC/5297) for the determination of deltamethrin
in TC, chlorfenapyr in TC and deltamethrin + chlorfenapyr in LN formulations was
accepted as provisional CIPAC method with the need to modify the description
of the method considering the column and specifying the resolution.
Provisional

Provisional 
MT XXX
Discharge rate of trigger dispenser
The method for determination of the discharge rate of trigger dispensers (CIPAC/5152)
was accepted as provisional CIPAC method with  the need for further clarifications
