The Determination of Eight Pesticides in Panax notoginseng of Chinese Traditional Medicine Using Solid-Phase Extraction and Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry

Article Preview

Abstract:

A simple and effective extraction method based on solid-phase extraction (SPE) was developed to determine chlorothalonil, metalaxyl, triadimefon, dimetachlone, procymidone, flumetralin, oxadixyl and iprodione in Panax Notoginseng using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry with selected ion monitoring (GC/MS, SIM). The prepared samples were analysed with GC-MS in the selected ion monitoring mode (SIM) using one target and two or three qualitative ions for each analyte. In the method, hexane - dichloromethane(6:4,v/v)was selected to effectively extract the pesticides from the Panax Notoginseng samples. Solid-phase extraction was carried out using Supelclean ENVI-Carb/NH2 SPE Column with acetonitrile-toluene (3:1, v/v) as the eluted solvent. In the linear range of each pesticide, the correlation coefficient was R2≥0.99. The limit of detection ranged from 0.001 to 0.05 µg.mL-1, average recoveries ranged from 79.80% to 95.00%, with relative standard deviations between 1.96% and 4.32% for all 8 pesticides.They were readily achieved with this method for all tested pesticides.
