Abstract
The simultaneous determination method of 8 amide pesticides by multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNs) cleanup, combined with QuEChERS method and ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometry has been developed and successfully applied in complex matrix such as green onions, celery, leeks, citrus, lychees, avocado. The matric effect of MWCNs is optimized and compared with QuEChERS materials. The results show that MWCNs can effectively reduce the matrix effect in sample extraction. The mass spectrometry is optimized, through their chemical structure skeletons, the ESI+ and ESI- mode are simultaneously scanned in the method. The coefficient (r) is greater than 0.9990, the limit of quantification ranges from 0.03 to 0.80 μg/kg, the recovery rate ranges from 71.2% to 120%, and the relative standard deviation (RSD) ranges from 3.8% to 9.4%. The method is fast, simple, sensitive, and has good purification effect. It is suitable for the rapid determination of amide pesticides in complex matrix agri-food.
