“…A comparison between GC-Q-MS and GC-IT-MS/MS for two EU-non-authorized insecticides (isocarbophos and isofenphos-methyl) in peppers indicated that no significant differences between the two techniques were noticed in terms of sensitivity, although the unambiguous confirmation capabilities provided by IT-MS/MS could not be achieved with the single Q-MS analyzer (Mezcua et al, 2009c).…”

Analysis of pesticides and their metabolites in food and water matrices continues to be an active research area closely related to food safety and environmental issues. This review discusses the most widely applied mass spectrometric (MS) approaches to pesticide residues analysis over the last few years. The main techniques for sample preparation remain solvent extraction and solid-phase extraction. The QuEChERS (Quick, Easy, Cheap, Effective, Rugged, Safe) approach is being increasingly used for the development of multi-class pesticide residues methods in various sample matrices. MS detectors-triple quadrupole (QqQ), ion-trap (IT), quadrupole linear ion trap (QqLIT), time-of-flight (TOF), and quadrupole time-of-flight (QqTOF)-have been established as powerful analytical tools sharing a primary role in the detection/quantification and/or identification/confirmation of pesticides and their metabolites. Recent developments in analytical instrumentation have enabled coupling of ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) and fast gas chromatography (GC) with MS detectors, and faster analysis for a greater number of pesticides. The newly developed "ambient-ionization" MS techniques (e.g., desorption electrospray ionization, DESI, and direct analysis in real time, DART) hyphenated with high-resolution MS platforms without liquid chromatography separation, and sometimes with minimum pre-treatment, have shown potential for pesticide residue screening. The recently introduced Orbitrap mass spectrometers can provide high resolving power and mass accuracy, to tackle complex analytical problems involved in pesticide residue analysis.

Abstract-Applied all over the world, pesticides are some of the most common pollutants of the environment because of their stability, mobility, their consequent long-term adverse effects on living organisms in general and human health in particular. For these reasons it is essential to monitor and analyse pesticide residues in the fruits and vegetables. The analysis of food samples for the presence of pesticides causes a lot of difficulties in consideration of specificity of sample preparation based on multistage operations of purification of sample containing vestigial amount of analyte with simultaneous large amount of interferents. The extraction and determination of pesticide residues in fruit and vegetable samples are discussed, as are the techniques most commonly used in these processes. The difficulties occurring at each stage in the analytical procedure are outlined.

“…The original procedure consists of extracting the homogenized sample by hand-shake or Vortex with the same amount of acetonitrile in order to have a final extract concentrated enough without the need of a solvent evaporation step. The technique has attracted the attention of pesticide analysis studies worldwide, [15][16][17][18] and a review has been published recently. 19 In the other hand, the research about pesticides analysis in dry samples (e.g.…”

Neste trabalho desenvolveu-se um método para a determinação de 15 pesticidas em pão utilizando cromatografia gasosa acoplada à espectrometria de massas (GC-MS), operando no modo de ionização química negativa (NCI). No preparo da amostra utilizou-se acetonitrila contendo 1% (v/v) de ácido acético, na presença de acetato de sódio, citrato de sódio e sulfato de magnésio. O método foi validado avaliando os seguintes parâmetros: linearidade, limite de detecção (LOD), limite de quantificação (LOQ), precisão e exatidão. A faixa linear utilizada foi de 1,0-100 µg L -1 . As recuperações foram consideradas satisfatórias apresentando valores entre 70 e 117%, com RSD ≤ 17,6% para quase todos os compostos. O LOQ do método variou de 10 a 20 µg kg -1 . O método demonstrou ser adequado, sensível e altamente seletivo para a análise multirresíduo de pesticidas em pão.In this work a method for the determination of 15 pesticides in bread samples using gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC-MS), operating in the negative chemical ionization mode (NCI) was developed and validated. For the extraction procedure acetonitrile containing 1% (v/v) acetic acid was used in presence of sodium acetate, sodium citrate and magnesium sulphate. The method was validated evaluating the following parameters: linearity, limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantification (LOQ), precision and accuracy. The linear range used was from 1.0 to 100 µg L -1 . The recoveries had been considered satisfactory presenting values between 70 and 117% with RSD ≤ 17.6% for almost all the compounds. The real method LOQ ranged from 10 to 20 mg kg -1 . The method shown to be adequate for the multiresidue analysis of pesticides in bread and the GC-MS (NCI) proved to be sensitive and highly selective.
