Abstract

A rapid analysis of pesticides using on-line Solid phase extraction LC MS/MS (Agilent Technology) was performed using only 2-mL water samples. SPE cartridge PLRP-s was used for the pre-concentration sample with methanol elution in back flush. Sensitive transitions and mass spectrometry conditions were optimized by direct infusion of individual standard solutions in a positive electrospray mode. Water samples were spiked with internal standards to compensate the matrix effect. The limit of quantification was calculated to be 20 ng L−1 using the standard deviation of blank analysis injected ten times and uncertainties were estimated at less than 20% on concentrations. This method was validated to study leaching water samples for which only small quantities of water were available.•Only 2 mL water sample was used.•Samples were filtered at 0.2 µm and spiked with individual standard.•Compounds were separated in an 18.5-min elution time using the dynamic MRM program.
