Determination of Imidacloprid Residues in Chinese Cabbage by UPLC-MS/MS

Abstract:

A method for determination of imidacloprid in Chinese Cabbage was established by using UPLCMS/MS. and the samples are extracted with acetontrile,and the extract is cleaned up by Florisil SPE cartridges and evaporated.Choromatographic separation was performed on a C18 column,and determined by UPLC-MS/MS.The external standard calibration curves were used for quantification. The results showed that a good linear correlation was obtained in the range of 0.005-0.1ug/mL. The limit of quantif icat ion w as 0. 008 mg/ kg .The average recoveries and the relative standard deviations were in the range of 84.9 %~92.7 % and 0.9 %~6.2 %, respectively. It is applicable to the determination of imidacloprid redidue in Chinese cabbage.
