A novel ultra-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS) method was developed for the first time for the determination of herbicide atrazine (ATR) and its principal metabolites namely desisopropylatrazine (DIA), desethylatrazine (DEA) and hydroxyatrazine (HA) in cereals.

Anticoagulant rodenticide residues (warfarin, coumatetralyl, diphacinone, chlorophacinone, brodifacoum, bromadiolone, and flocoumafen) in human serum were determined by sensitive high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry.

Abstract A method was developed for the determination of cyantraniliprole (HGW86) and its metabolite J9Z38 in watermelon and soil by ultra-performance LC (UPLC)/MS/MS. Target compounds were extracted by acetonitrile–water, cleaned up on a silica gel column, and determined by UPLC/MS/MS. Average recoveries of cyantraniliprole and J9Z38 in watermelon and soil at three levels (0.01, 0.1, and 0.5 mg/kg) ranged from 85.71 to 105.74%, with RSDs of 0.90–6.34%. The LOQs for cyantraniliprole and J9Z38 were determined to be 0.00021, 0.00015, 0.0010, and 0.00090 mg/kg in watermelon and soil samples, respectively. This method was used to determine the cyantraniliprole and J9Z38 residues in watermelon and soil samples for studies on their dissipation. The trial results showed that the half-lives of cyantraniliprole obtained after treatments were 1.1 and 4.1 days in watermelon and soil in Zhejiang, and 2.7 and 2.6 days in watermelon and soil in Hunan, respectively. The average levels of cyantraniliprole and J9Z38 residues in watermelon and soil were all <0.01 mg/kg within the 14-day interval after treatment.

A rapid, simply and effective method using ultra­performance liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (MS) detection was developed in order to determine sibutramine and phenolphthalein in weight­loss tea, coffee, and milk. QuEChERS technique was used for cleaning­up sample matrices. The extracts were separated on C18 LC columns using the gradient elution of 0.1% formic acid in distilled water and acetonitrile. The recoveries at the concentration of 50 µg/kg were from 90.1 to 105.8% (with RSDR of 4.04 ­ 4.24%), from 91.9 to 100.2% (with RSDR of 3.20 ­ 4.71%), and from 86.5 to 100.5% (with RSDR of 5.17 ­ 5.49%) for weight­loss tea, coffee, and milk, respectively. Method quantitation limits were of 30 µg/kg.
