“…This method has a high degree of accuracy (between 82.6% and 117.6% of recovery), reproducibility (1.1 to 11.2 of RSD), and robustness, making it suitable for large-scale monitoring of citrus fruits gathered from farmer's fields. The obtained R-square, LOD, LOQ, and recoveries of all pesticides are good when compared to other findings in the citrus fruit matrix 4,14,16,[20][21][22][23][24][25] .…”

An analytical method was developed and validated for the determination of 45 multi-class pesticide residues in citrus fruit samples collected from and around Pulivendula, India, using GC-MS/MS (Gas chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry) followed by the QuEChERS extraction method . The linear regression coefficients (R-square) of the methods range from 0.998 to 0.999, and the Limit of Detection (LOD) and Limit of Quantification (LOQ) are 1.56 to 25.23 ng/mL and 4.72 to 76.47 ng/mL, respectively. Recoveries of all spiked pesticides range from 82.6 to 117.6%, with a RSD (Relative Standard Deviation) less than 11.2%. The results show that 42 out of 45 pesticides were detected in whole citrus fruit pulp (with peel) samples. Fenthion, bifenthrin, and fenvalerate were not detected. In the collected citrus samples, phorate (21.71 µg/kg), and ethion (51.47 µg/kg) insecticides are present above the Maximum Residue Level (MRL), but cypermethrin (25.89 µg/kg) was detected below the MRL. 13 out of 45 pesticides were detected in edible parts of citrus fruit (without peel) samples, with ethion having the highest residue. All pesticides were within the MRL limits prescribed by the European Union (EU) and Codex regulations for MRL in citrus fruits, and peeling was found to be one of the best ways to get rid of pesticide residues.

“…This results in pesticide residues on the surface or inside the fruit. For example, Drabova et al (2022) detected 38 different pesticide residues in citrus in a Czech market, with thiazide and fenbutatin oxide exceeding the maximum residue limits (MRLs). Omeje et al (2022) found several organophosphorus and organochlorine pesticide residues in fresh fruits in a Nigerian market, some of them are even legally prohibited, such as linuron, propiconazole, and chlorpyrifos (Kazimierczak et al, 2022).…”

The binding of pesticide residues and fruit components may have a profound impact on pesticide dissipation and the functional characteristics of the corresponding components. Therefore, the interaction between boscalid and tannic acid (TA, a representative phenolic in fruit) was systematically investigated using spectroscopic, thermodynamic, and computational chemistry methods. A separable system was designed to obtain the boscalid-TA complex. Fourier transform infrared and 1 H-NMR spectroscopies indicated the formation of hydrogen bonds in the complex. Isothermal titration calorimetry showed that the complex bound spontaneously through hydrophobic interactions (ΔG < 0, ΔH > 0, ΔS > 0), with a binding constant of 6.0 × 10 5 M −1 at 298 K. The molecular docking results further confirmed the formation of hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions in the complex at the molecular level, with a binding energy of −8.43 kcal mol −1 . In addition, the binding of boscalid to TA significantly decreased the antioxidant activity of TA. The binding of boscalid residue to TA was characterized at the molecular level, which significantly reduced the in vitro antioxidant properties of TA.

Since the introduction of the positive list system (PLS) for agricultural products in the Republic of Korea, the demand for a quick, easy multi-residue analysis method increased continuously. Herein, the quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged, and safe (QuEChERS) technique combined with liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry was employed to optimize a method for the multi-residue analysis of 287 pesticide residues in mandarin orange and grapefruit. Method validation was conducted in terms of selectivity, limit of quantitation (LOQ), linearity, accuracy, precision, and matrix effect. All the compounds at low spiking levels (1, 2.5, 5, or 10 mg/kg) could be quantified at LOQs lower than 0.01 mg/kg (PLS level). The linearity of the matrix-matched calibration curve for each compound is in the range 0.5–50 μg/L, and its coefficient of determination (R2) is >0.990. Satisfactory recovery values of 70–120% with a relative standard deviation of ≤20% are obtained for all compounds in the mandarin orange and grapefruit samples. A negligible matrix effect (−20–20%) is observed for more than 94.8% and 85.4% of the pesticides in mandarin orange and grapefruit, respectively. Therefore, this analytical method can contribute to pesticide residue analyses of citrus fruits for routine laboratory testing.
