چکیده
Neste trabalho foi desenvolvido um método para a determinação de hexaclorobenzeno, lindano, heptaclor, heptaclor epóxido, aldrin, dieldrin, endrin, DDT e DDE em folhas de Mikania laevigata, Maytenus ilicifolia e Cordia verbenacea, empregando a Cromatografia Gasosa acoplada a Espectrometria de Massas (GC-MS). A extração dos pesticidas foi realizada por extração sólidolíquido (SLE), seguida de limpeza por extração em fase sólida (Florisil e silica-gel). A quantificação foi realizada usando o GC-MS no modo SIM. A recuperação média variou de 70 a 124%. A precisão inter-ensaio de uma amostra fortificada com 200 ng g de cada pesticida variou de 1,0 a 7,3%. Os limites de quantificação variaram de 3,0 a 30 ng g e estão abaixo dos limites máximos de resíduos (MLR) estabelecidos para os pesticidas sob estudo. O método foi empregado para analisar amostras de Mikania laevigata, Maytenus ilicifolia e Cordia verbenacea de um campo experimental de Paulínia, SP, Brasil. As amostras apresentaram contaminação com dieldrin acima do MRL estabelecido pela Farmacopéia Européia (50 ng g).

Employing Solid Phase Microextraction as Extraction Tool for Pesticide Residues in Traditional Medicinal Plants
HS-SPME was optimised using blank plant sample for analysis of organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) of varying polarities in selected medicinal plants obtained from northern part of Botswana, where OCPs such as DDT and endosulfan have been historically applied to control disease carrying vectors (mosquitos and tsetse fly). The optimised SPME parameters were used to isolate analytes from root sample...
متن کاملValidation of an Analytical Method for Simultaneous Determination of 18 Persistent Organic Pollutants in Trout Using LLE Extraction and GC-MS/MS
Persistent organic pollutants, (POPs), are vast distributed compounds in environment which are recognized as one of the global pollution problems. These groups of materials being dangerous due to their high stability are accumulated in animal tissues and occurring in the food chain. One of the major paths through which persistent organic combinations access to human body is consuming polluted f...

متن کاملDetermination of organochlorine pesticides in river water by gas chromatography-negative-ion chemical-ionization mass spectrometry using large volume injection
A method for the determination of 24 organochlorine pesticides by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) with negative-ion chemical-ionization (NICI) using programmable temperature vaporizer (PTV)-based large volume injection (LVI) is described. The ion source temperature was determined to be 150 °C for the optimized NICI-selected ion monitoring (SIM) conditions. PTV inlet parameters were...

Background and Objective: Milk is one of the most important components of human food. In recent decades, the continued use of pesticides has led to contamination of soil, water, air and milk and caused public concern in the community. Long-term exposure to pesticide residuals in the food chain can be harmful. Therefore, there is a need to control environmental conditions in order to improve its...
