Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo establish residue analysis method of imidacloprid in Ephedra sinica by HPLC.
METHODImidacloprid was extracted with dichloromethane, cleaned up with chromatography column, then separated on Spherisorb C18 column by using Methanol-water (20:80), detected at 270 nm.
RESULT AND CONCLUSIONThe limit of detection (LOD) and limit quantification (LOQ) were 0.4 x 10(-9) g and 0.02 mg x kg(-1), mean recovery and related standard deviation (RSD) were 85.37%-90.65% and 2.23%-3.45%. It is concluded that the method could satisfy the pesticide residue analysis demands in sensitivity, accuracy and precision.
