- Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To establish a method for simultaneous determination of 56 kinds of pesticide residues in Radix Ophiopogonis by using gas chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS /MS), and apply it to screening of 137 batches of samples. METHODS: The forbidden, restricted and frequently-used pesticides were selected as the detecting indexes. The samples were prepared by QuEChERS, and quantitative analysis was carried out by GC-MS /MS in multiple-reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. There were three supplemental levels for detection recoveries and RSD. RESULTS: All the 56 pesticides had good linearity in certain ranges with correlation coefficients(r) higher than 0.997 8. The recoveries of 96.4% pesticides ranged from 60% to 130% at three supplemental levels (1, 2 and 10 LODs), with the RSDs of 92.9% pesticides less than 15%. The LODs for most of the selected pesticides were below 0.01 mg•kg-1. Twelve pesticides were detected in 137 batches of samples. CONCLUSION: The detecting indexes are meaningful and the developed method is simple, rapid, sensitive and reliable for screening multiple pesticide residues in Radix Ophiopogonis. The test result has certain reference value for the cultivation and distribution supervision of Radix Ophiopogonis.
