Multi-Residue Method for Pesticides Determination in Dried Hops by Liquid Chromatography Tandem Mass Spectrometry
In this study a multi-residue determination method for 36 pesticides in dried hops was reported. The sample preparation procedure was based on the acetate buffered QuEChERS method. A few mixtures of dispersive solid phase extraction (dSPE) sorbents consisting PSA, C<sub>18</sub>, GCB, Z-...

description | In this study a multi-residue determination method for 36 pesticides in dried hops was reported. The sample preparation procedure was based on the acetate buffered QuEChERS method. A few mixtures of dispersive solid phase extraction (dSPE) sorbents consisting PSA, C<sub>18</sub>, GCB, Z-Sep and Z-Sep+ were investigated to clean-up the supernatant and minimize matrix co-extractives. The degree of clean-up was assessed by gravimetric measurements, which showed the best results for mixtures containing the Z-Sep+ sorbent. This is the first study to apply Z-Sep+ sorbent for hops material and the first to improve the method for pesticide residues determination in hops. Samples were analysed using liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) and the procedure was validated according to the SANTE/11813/2017 document at four concentration levels: 0.02, 0.05, 0.1 and 1 mg/kg. The limits of quantification (LOQ) were in the range of 0.02–0.1 mg/kg. For all active substances, the trueness (recovery) ranged from 70 to 120% and the precision (RSD<sub>r</sub>) value was <20%. Specificity, linearity and matrix effect were also evaluated. The validated method was applied to the analysis of 15 real dried hop samples and the relevant data on detected residues were included. |
