ABSTRACT
A supercritical fluid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (SFC-MS/MS) technique was developed for the rapid and simultaneous detection of nine pesticides (carbendazim, isoprocarb, paclobutrazol, isoprothiolane, flusilazole, quinalphos, piperonylbutoxide, propargite, and bioresmethrin) in rice, wheat, and maize. The cereal samples were extracted with a solution of 0.5% acetic acid in acetonitrile and purified using quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged, and safe method. The samples were characterized using multi-reaction monitoring and quantified with the external standard method. Excellent linearities (R2 > 0.9991) and limits of quantification (0.4-40.0 µg/kg) were established for all nine pesticides. Satisfactory pesticide recovery rates (62.2%-107.4%) were obtained at three standard concentrations (50, 100, and 200 µg/kg), with relative standard deviations in the range of 2.1%-14.3%. The results confirmed that the proposed method was suitable for the routine detection of these pesticides in grain samples. Compared with high-performance liquid chromatography-MS/MS, the overall test run time and the amount of solvent required were reduced by 66% and 90%, respectively, when SFC-MS/MS was applied. Therefore, the use of SFC-MS/MS permits a shorter run time and affords greater analytical efficiency, such that it is both economical and environmentally sustainable.
