Abstract

ABSTRACTNanosheets of graphitic carbon nitride (GCN) were used as the dispersive solid-phase extraction (d-SPE) sorbent for the first time. GCN successfully purified complex matrices of soil, wheat, and wheat straw utilising a simple QuEChERS (quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged, and safe) method with liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. Pesticides recoveries in the range of 80–110%, small matrix effect, and decreased amounts guaranteed and distinguished this new sorbent. The application of a real formulation of pesticides under field conditions during 2015 in the wheat ecosystem illustrated the clean-up effect and application potential of GCN. It is a valuable and potential substitute for C18 according to the results comparison between two sorbents, including recoveries, matrix-matched calibration, and dissipation kinetics of pesticides. The new use of GCN also enriched the knowledge of d-SPE and sample preparation furthermore.
