Screening Foodstuffs for Pesticides and Other Organic Chemical Contaminants Using Full Scan GC/MS and MassHunter Quant Target Deconvolution
ثبت نشده
چکیده
This application note demonstrates the use of the Target Deconvolution (TD) feature of Agilent MassHunter Quantitative software for the targeted identification of pesticides and other organic contaminants in extracted foodstuffs. TD uses deconvoluted full mass spectra and reference library mass spectral matching to provide additional confidence in target analyte identification beyond that provided by the use of retention time and ion ratio measurements.

Pesticide analysis of fruits and vegetables requires finding trace-level residues in complex matrices. Up to now, the typical trade-off is between sensitivity and confirmation. Therefore, multiple injections are needed for screening and confirmation using gas chromatography with mass spectrometry (GC-MS) or GC-MS in combination with GC with element-selective detection. With the recent introduct...
متن کاملSimultaneous screening and target analytical approach by gas chromatography-quadrupole-mass spectrometry for pesticide residues in fruits and vegetables.
A full-scan GC/quadrupole/MS method has been developed to perform large-scale screenings of pesticides and simultaneous quantification of 95 target compounds in a single run of 21 min. The screening method was performed by using a deconvolution of the spectrum of the full-scan data files acquired under a retention time locked method. The identification performance of the screening method was ev...

Laboratories that perform toxicology screens are challenged by the requirement to look for large numbers of target compounds in samples that contain complex matrix interferences. GC/MS methods are widely used and accepted for this analysis. Full-scan EI methods offer many advantages for broad-range screening, such as unlimited numbers of targets, full-spectrum identity confirmation, and library...
