Abstract An automated, continuous flow system is described for Florisil column chromatography of pesticide residues from food extracts. Evaluation of the system using 5 common organochlorine and organophosphorus pesticides in 2 crop matrices demonstrates essentially no difference in recovery or precision between automated and currently used manual analyses. The automated procedure uses only 20% of the solvents and adsorbents used in the manual procedure and is 3 times faster.

Abstract This article reviews the chromatography/MS methodologies for analysis of pesticide residues of orphan and difficult chemical classes in a variety of sample matrixes including water, urine, blood, and food. The review focuses on pesticide classes that are not commonly included in multiresidue analysis methods such as highly polar or ionic herbicides including glyphosate, glufosinate, quaternary ammonium, and phenoxy acid herbicides, and some of their major degradation or metabolite products. In addition, dithiocarbamate and phthalimide fungicides, which are thermally unstable and have stability issues in some solvents or sample matrixes, are also examined due to their special needs in residue analysis.

Abstract A method for extraction and fast gas chromatographic (GC) determination of twenty pesticide residues of different volatility and polarity at ultratrace concentration level in apples is presented. Apples as representatives of non-fatty food were chosen as a matrix; they are also a common raw material for baby food production. Under fast GC conditions employing a mass spectrometric detector (MSD), several parameters of the MSPD procedure were optimised. Samples were homogenised with sorbent Florisil, pesticides were eluted with the optimised volume of etylacetate. After solvent evaporation to dryness, reconstitution of the rest to toluene follow and the final extract was injected. Recoveries obtained at three selected concentration levels were determined. The optimised procedure led to recoveries ≥ 90 % for the majority of the studied pesticides and the limits of quantification (LOQs) < 5 μg.kg-1. Repeatability of gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) measurements of the matrix matched standards, expressed as the relative standard deviation (RSD [%]), was in most cases acceptable for ultratrace concentration levels of pesticide residues.
