| Gaia: | The purpose of this study is to develop an accurate and efficient assay for the detection of pyrethroid residues and degradation in barley and soil in the Qinghai Plateau region. A sensitive and selective method was developed for the determination of pyrethrin residues in highland barley (kernel, stem, and root) and soil in the Qinghai Plateau by liquid chromatography (LC-MS/MS). Multi-residue analysis of pyrethrin in samples involves simple extraction with acetonitrile, salt-out with NaCl, MgSO4 absorption of water, cleaning with GCB and PSA, respectively, followed by separation with XR-ODS II column, and multi-reaction detection mode detection using a positive mode electrospray ionization source (ESI + ). The results showed that the 6 different components of pyrethrin had a good detection effect in the concentration range of 0.01 ∼ 1.0 mg/L, and the correlation coefficient was greater than 0.9990. The limits of quantitation of each component on each substrate were 0.01 ∼ 0.05 mg/kg, the average daily recoveries were 87.58 ∼ 95.44 %, and the relative standard deviations were 0.4 ∼ 3.8 %. The half-life of pyrethrin in barley grains, stems and soil was 0.77 ∼ 2.57 d. In soil and highland barley, the maximum dose of pyrethrin and twice the maximum dose of pyrethrin were applied, and the final residue 7 days after treatment was less than 0.2 mg/kg. The degradation behavior of pyrethrin in soil at three test sites showed that organic carbon and pH were important factors affecting the degradation of pyrethrin, and the effect of pH on the degradation of six pyrethrin components was greater than that of organic carbon. These studies provide theoretical basis for environmental safety evaluation caused by pyrethrin use in the Qinghai Plateau.
