[Determination of seven pesticide residues in bamboo shoots by high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry coupled with solid-phase extraction].

A simple and efficient method based on solid-phase extraction (SPE) and high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) was developed for the determination of butylene fipronil, chlorpyrifos, chlorantraniliprole, fipronil, imidacloprid, indoxacarb and phoxim residues in bamboo shoots. The sample was extracted with acetonitrile and purified by a primary secondary amine (PSA) solid-phase extraction cartridge. The detection of targets was performed by HPLC-MS/MS with multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. All the seven pesticides were completely separated in 15 min with an excellent linear relationship. The limits of detection and the limits of quantification for the seven pesticides were 0.02-0.5 microg/kg and 0.08-1.5 microg/kg, respectively. The recoveries of the seven pesticides spiked in a bamboo shoot sample at the levels of 4, 8, 32 microg/kg were in the range from 76.0% to 102.6% (the RSD < or = 11.0%, n = 3). The method was successfully applied to the real bamboo shoot samples. The method has high accuracy and sensitivity, and is simple and quick. It can meet the requirement of the simultaneous determination of the seven pesticides in bamboo shoots.
