Detect 15 pesticides fungicide in edible fungi by multiplug filtration clean-up pretreatment technology with ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry

Abstract

To establish a method for determination of 15 pesticides residue in edible fungi by multiplug filtration clean-up(m-PFC) pretreatment technique with ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem triple quadruple mass spectrometry(UPLC-MS/MS). The interferences of edible fungus samples were removed by extracting with acetonitrile and filtration type extraction column, which were fat, carbohydrates, water-soluble vitamins. Samples were separated with column of Waters ACQUITY UPLC®HSS T3(2.1 mm×100 mm, 1.8 μm), and were scanned by multiple reaction monitoring mode(MRM). Samples were quantified with matrix matching standard curve external standard method. The recoveries of 15 target compounds at the spiked levels of 10, 20, 50 μg/kg were 82.5%-118.5%, and the relative standard deviations were between 6.1% and 23.1%(n=6). The detection limit of 15 target compounds was 1-3 μg/kg, and the limit of quantification was 3-10 μg/kg. This method improves the efficiency of pretreatment, has good stability and high sensitivity, and could be used for the detection of 15 pesticides in edible fungi.
