Hence, this study evaluated the residues of 99 pesticides in 72 samples of 12 agricultural products collected in the region, using QuEChERS (Quick, Easy, Cheap, Effective, Rugged, and Safe) method extraction, and analyzed by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) and gas chromatography with electron capture detection (GC-ECD). This method was suitable for detecting the targeted compounds: For 81 pesticides by LC-MS/MS, the limit of quantification (LOQ) was between 0.0004 and 0.0537 mg/kg; and for 18 halogenated pesticides by GC-ECD, it ranged from 0.0012 to 0.2180 mg/kg.

  • Comprehensive LC/MS/MS Workflow of Pesticide Residues in High Water
    Application Note Food Testing and Agriculture Comprehensive LC/MS/MS Workflow of Pesticide Residues in Food Using the Agilent 6470 Triple Quadrupole LC/MS System Pesticides residue workflow in high water content, high oil content, and high starch content samples Authors Abstract Aimei Zou, Sashank Pillai, A comprehensive LC/MS/MS workflow was developed for the quantitation of Peter Kornas, 510 pesticide residues with the intention to accelerate and simplify routine Melanie Schober, Limian Zhao, laboratory food testing. Compound transitions and optimized parameters were Marco Zanotti, and developed based on the Agilent Pesticide Dynamic MRM Database, which has over Chee Sian Gan 750 pesticides including curated parameters for fast and easy transfer into the Agilent Technologies, Inc. analytical method. The workflow includes sample preparation, chromatographic separation, mass spectrometry (MS) detection, data analysis, and interpretation. The workflow applicability was demonstrated using an Agilent 1290 Infinity II LC system coupled to an Agilent 6470 triple quadrupole LC/MS on three food matrices with different content types: tomato (high water content), wheat (high starch content), and olive oil (high oil content). For sample preparation of the tomato and wheat samples, an Agilent QuEChERS kit was used with dSPE cleanup. Extraction was performed with the QuEChERS kit followed by Agilent Captiva EMR—Lipid cleanup for preparing olive oil samples. Workflow performance was evaluated and verified according to SANTE/12682/2019 based on limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantitation (LOQ), calibration curve linearity, and recovery and precision using matrix‑matched calibration standards from 1 to 100 μg/L. Over 95% of analytes demonstrated linearity with R2 ≥0.99, with calibration curves plotted from LOQ to 50 or 100 μg/L.
