Simultaneous determination of eight pesticide residues in coconut using MSPD and GC/MS

Maria Geovânia Dantas Silva; Adriano Aquino; Haroldo Silveira Dórea; Sandro Navickiene

A simple and effective extraction method based on matrix solid-phase dispersion (MSPD) was developed to determine dimethoate, malathion, lufenuron, carbofuran, 3-hydroxycarbofuran, thiabendazole, difenoconazole and trichlorfon in coconut pulp using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry with selected ion monitoring (GC/MS, SIM). Different parameters of the method were evaluated, such as type of solid-phase (C(18), alumina, silica-gel and Florisil), the amount of solid-phase and eluent (dichloromethane, acetone, ethyl acetate, acetonitrile, n-hexane and n-hexane:ethyl acetate (1:1, v/v)). The best results were obtained using 0.5 g of coconut pulp, 1.0 g of C(18) as dispersant sorbent, 1.0 g of Florisil as clean-up sorbent and acetonitrile saturated with n-hexane as eluting solvent. The method was validated using coconut pulp samples fortified with pesticides at different concentration levels (0.25-1.0 mg kg(-1)). Average recoveries (four replicates) ranged from 70.1% to 98.7%, with relative standard deviations between 2.7% and 14.7%, except for lufenuron and difenoconazole, for which recoveries were 47.2% and 48.2%, respectively. Detection and quantification limits for coconut pulp ranged from 0.02 to 0.17 mg kg(-1) and from 0.15 to 0.25 mg kg(-1), respectively.

The coordination polymer [Zn(BDC)(H(2)O)(2)](n) was tested for extraction of pyrimethanil, ametryn, dichlofluanid, tetraconazole, flumetralin, kresoxim-methyl and tebuconazole from the medicinal plant Hyptis pectinata, with analysis using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry in selected ion monitoring mode (GC/MS, SIM). Experiments carried out at different fortification levels (0.1, 0.5 and 1.0 μg g(-1)) resulted in recoveries in the range 73-97%, and RSD values were between 5 and 12% for the [Zn(BDC)(H(2)O)(2)](n) sorbent. Detection and quantification limits ranged from 0.02 to 0.07 μg g(-1) and from 0.05 to 0.1 μg g(-1), respectively, for the different pesticides studied. The method developed was linear over the range tested (0.04-14.0 μg g(-1)), with correlation coefficients ranging from 0.9987 to 0.9998. Comparison between [Zn(BDC)(H(2)O)(2)](n) and the commercial phase C(18)-bonded silica showed good performance of the [Zn(BDC)(H(2)O)(2)](n) polymeric sorbent for the pesticides tested.

Determination of N,N-dimethyltryptamine in Mimosa tenuiflora inner barks by matrix solid-phase dispersion procedure and GC–MS

Alain Gaujac; Adriano Aquino; Sandro Navickiene; Jailson B. de Andrade

N,N-dimethyltryptamine (DMT) is a potent hallucinogen found in beverages consumed in religion rituals and neo-shamanic practices over the world. Two of these religions, Santo Daime and União do Vegetal (UDV), are represented in countries including Australia, the United States and several European nations. In some of this countries there have been legal disputes concerning the legalization of ayahuasca consumption during religious rituals, a beverage rich in DMT. In Brazil, even children and pregnant women are legally authorized to consume ayahuasca in a religious context. A simple and low-cost method based on matrix solid-phase dispersion (MSPD) and gas chromatography with mass spectrometric detection (GC-MS) has been optimized for the determination of N,N-dimethyltryptamine in Mimosa tenuiflora inner bark. The experimental variables that affect the MSPD method, such as the amounts of solid-phase and herbal sample, solvent nature, eluate volume and NaOH concentration were optimized using an experimental design. The method showed good linearity (r = 0.9962) and repeatability (RSD < 7.4%) for DMT compound, with detection limit of 0.12 mg/g. The proposed method was used to analyze 24 samples obtained locally. The results showed that concentrations of the target compound in M. tenuiflora barks, ranged from 1.26 to 9.35 mg/g for these samples.

Multiclass MSPD method for pesticide determination in dehydrated Hyptis pectinata (sambacaitá) medicinal plant by GC-MS

Adriano Aquino; Michel R.R. Souza; Samia Tássia Andrade Maciel; Marcelo R. Alexandre; Sandro Navickiene

A method was developed using matrix solid-phase dispersion (MSPD), together with gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC-MS) for determination of ametryn, tetraconazole, flumetralin, tebuconazole, pyrimethanil, dichlofluanid and kresoxim-methyl in dehydrated Hyptis pectinata (sambacaita) medicinal plant material. The evaluated parameters included the type and amount of sorbent (C18, neutral alumina, silica gel and Florisil) and the nature of the eluent (dichloromethane, ethyl acetate and dichloromethane:ethyl acetate (1:1, v/v)). The best results were obtained using 0.5 g of plant material, 0.5 g of C18 as sorbent and dichloromethane (20 mL) as the eluting solvent. The method was validated using plant samples spiked with pesticides at different concentration levels (0.05-1.0 µg g-1). Average recoveries (using four replicates) ranged from 83 to 127%, with relative standard deviations between 4 and 15%. Limits of detection (LOD) and quantification (LOQ) were in the ranges 0.02-0.07 µg g-1 and 0.05-0.1 µg g-1, respectively.

MSPD procedure combined with GC-MS for the determination of procymidone, bifenthrin, malathion and pirimicarb in honey

Débora Santos Silva Bezerra; Marcell Mendes Santos Silva; Pedro Henrique Viana de Carvalho; Adriano Aquino; Sandro Navickiene

A method based on matrix solid-phase dispersion and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry to determine procymidone, malathion, bifenthrin and pirimicarb in honey is described. The best results were obtained using 1.0 g of honey, 1.0 g of silica-gel as dispersant sorbent and acetonitrile as eluting solvent. The method was validated by fortified honey samples at three concentration levels (0.2, 0.5 to 1.0 mg kg-1). Average recoveries (n=7) ranged from 54 to 84%, with relative standard deviations between 3.7 and 8.5%. Detection and quantification limits attained by the developed method ranged from 0.02 to 0.08 mg kg-1 and 0.07 to 0.25 mg kg-1 for the honey, respectively.

A Novel Application of Natural Peat for Solid-Phase Extraction of Pyrimethanil, Flumetralin, and Kresoxim-Methyl in Water Using Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry

Alex S. M. S. J. Santos; Adriano Aquino; Luciane Pimenta Cruz Romão; Sandro Navickiene

Natural peat was tested for extraction of pyrimethanil, flumetralin, and krexosim-methyl from water, with analysis using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) in selected ion monitoring mode (SIM). Experiments were carried out at one fortification level (0.1 μg L−1) and resulted in recoveries in the range 41–96%, with RSD values between 6.8 and 12.6% for natural peat as sorbent. Detection and quantification limits ranged from 0.02 to 0.05 μg L−1 and from 0.07 to 0.1 μg L−1, respectively, for the different pesticides studied. The method developed was linear over the range tested (0.07–4.0 μg L−1), with correlation coefficients ranging from 0.9919 to 0.9989. Comparison between peat and commercial sorbents (C18-bonded silica, ENVI-Carb, Florisil, silica gel, ENVI-Carb/LC-NH2) showed better performance of peat sorbent for flumetralin and kresoxim-methyl.
