NEW TECHNOLOGIES FOR THE SIMULTANEOUS ANALYSIS OF MULTIPLE PESTICIDE RESIDUES IN AGRICULTURAL PRODUCE Catherine Ryan and Gordon Kearney Waters Corporation, Manchester, UK

The work details the development of a multi-residue method for the analysis of 100 pesticide residues by UPLC/MS/MS. The work is based upon a previously developed HPLC/MS/MS method using a Waters Alliance® HT/Quattro Premier system, which had an overall cycle time of 25 minutes (HPLC conditions: ® XTerra MS C18 Column, 2.1 x 100 mm, 3.5 μm, linear gradient from 0 to 100% B in 17 min).

Comparison of UPLC and HPLC chromatograms is shown below (Figure 1). Peak widths observed for the majority of pesticide resi- dues analyzed under UPLC conditions are approximately 0.1 min (cf 0.3 min under HPLC conditions). The narrower peak widths often resulted in an increase in signal response over that achieved under Figure 2. Increased resolution of UPLC over HPLC. HPLC/MS/MS conditions (Figure 1).

MRM functions were arranged into time windows, based on analyte retention times (Figure 4). This system enabled the flexible use It can be seen that UPLC has the ability to separate complex mix- of dwell times (Table 1), such that those peaks with lower intensi- tures. This is confirmed by considering the analysis of 100 pesticide ties can have their S/N ratios increased by employing longer dwell residues in raisin matrix (Figure 3). All 100 pesticides elute within times, while retaining a minimal scan time. 10 minutes, and the overall cycle time is just 13.5 minutes. In addition to the primary MRM traces monitored for each analyte, Since the analytical method is intended for surveillance monitor- confirmation MRM traces were incorporated into the method for the ing, it needs to be able to detect tens of pesticide residues; some of 31 most commonly found residues. In total, 131 MRM transitions which are better detected under negative ES conditions (Table 1). were monitored in 26 time windows (Figure 4). The use of the ACQUITY UPLC system places added demands on the mass spectrometer due to the improved chromatographic resolution and short analysis times. For these reasons, the Quattro Premier tandem quadrupole mass spectrometer was selected as the detector for this application.
