Abstract A multiresidue analytical method is described for determining 6 pesticides in wine: chlorpyrifos, dimethoate, quinalphos, simazine, tetradifon, and endosulfan. Wine (200 mL) is extracted with dichloromethane (50 mL, 3 times), and the evaporated extracts are purified by silica gel chromatography. Pesticide residues are eluted with n-hexane, n-hexane-benzene (1 + 1), benzene, benzene–acetone (1 + 1), and acetone. Residues are determined by gas chromatography with nitrogen–phosphorus and electron capture detection, using CPSH-5CB, Carbo wax-20M, and CPSH-19CB columns. Recoveries of pesticides added at 0.025 μg/L were 83–97%, with standard deviations of 0.01–0.05%. Detection limits were 0.13–8.9 ng/L, except for simazine (36.7 μg/L). Results are compared with those obtained with a solid-phase extraction (C18) purification and with different eluant series.
