Abstract

An effective analytical method for the residue analysis of a novel insecticide chlorantraniliprole and its dissipation in grape were studied. Chlorantraniliprole residues were extracted from grape samples with ethyl acetate. The extract was cleaned up with QuEChERS (Quick, Easy, Cheap, Effective, Rugged and Safe) method and determined by high-performance liquid chromatography with photodiode array detector (HPLC-DAD). At fortification levels of 0.06, 0.5, and 1.0 mg kg−1 in grape, it was shown that recoveries ranged from 95.11 to 102 % with relative standard deviation (RSD) of 6 to 11 %. The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) were found to be 0.02 and 0.06 mg kg−1, respectively. The dissipation half-life time of chlorantraniliprole residues in grape was 2.70 days. According to maximum residue limit (MRL), the preharvest interval (PHI) of chlorantraniliprole on grape was 4 days after the treatment. Based on the results of this study and the relevant residue regulation, chlorantraniliprole residue levels will be acceptable when applied to grape in Egypt.
