RESUMO
An analytical method for detecting cymoxanil [2-cyano-N-[(ethylamino)carbonyl]-2-(methoxyimino)acetamide] residues in dried hops was developed utilizing liquid-liquid partitioning, automated gel permeation chromatography (GPC), solid phase extraction (SPE) cleanup, and gas chromatography (GC). Method validation recoveries from dried hops were 96 +/- 12, 108 +/- 11, and 136 +/- 8% over three levels of fortification (0.05, 0.5, and 1.0 ppm, respectively). The hop samples from three field sites, which were treated with cymoxanil, had residue levels ranging from 0.146 to 0.646 ppm. The detection limit and the quantitation limit of the method developed in the present study were 0.022 and 0.050 ppm, respectively.

An analytical method for the determination of dimethomorph [(E,Z)-4-[3-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)acryloyl]morpholine] residues in dried hops was developed utilizing liquid-liquid partitioning, automated gel permeation chromatography (GPC), Florisil and aminopropyl solid phase extraction (SPE) column cleanups, and gas chromatography (GC) with mass selective detection (MSD). Method validation recoveries from dried hops ranged from 79 to 103% over four levels of fortification (0.1, 1.0, 5.0, and 20 ppm). Control and dimethomorph-treated hop samples collected from three field sites had residue levels of <0.10 and 4.06-17.32 ppm, respectively. The method was validated to the limit of quantitation at 0.10 ppm. The limit of detection for this method was 0.045 ppm.
