Determination of pesticide residues in fruits and vegetables using QuEChERS sample preparation method

Abstrakt

The intensive development of agriculture means that more and more toxic organic and inorganic compounds are entering the environment. Because of their widespread use, environmental stability, selective toxicity and bioaccumulative capability, pesticides belong to the most hazardous substances contaminating the environment. They are particularly dangerous in fruits and vegetables, because they are one of the reasons why people are exposed to disease. That is why it is crucial to monitor pesticide residues in fruits and vegetables with the aid of all available analytical methods. The analysis of fruits and vegetables samples for the presence of pesticides causes a lot of difficulties in consideration of specificity of sample preparation based on multistage operations of purification of sample containing vestigial amount of analyte with simultaneous large amount interferents. Approaches are being sought to develop pesticide determination techniques that are quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged and safe. QuEChERS is one such method. It is a streamlined and effective extraction and cleanup approach for the analysis of diverse analyte residues in food matrices.
