Optimization and Validation of a Method Using GC–MS and QuEChERS for Pesticide Determination in Banana Pulp

Multivariate optimization and validation of 200 pesticide residues in the banana matrix by GC-MS/MS

“…The LOD, LOQ, recovery and RSD in this study were reported to be 0.01–0.05 mg kg −1 , 0.03–0.10 mg kg −1 , 74.78% and 99.98% and <20 respectively. 26 Saihao Ren et al investigated the presence of single compound fluopyram using GC-MS/MS in a range of crops that included tomato, cucumber, cowpea, pepper, eggplant, potato, banana, grape, and citrus. The extraction method employed was QuEChERS, with the clean-up using PSA, C18, and MWCNTs-NH 2 .…”
