Abstract:An analytical method for quick determination of 10 organophosphorus pesticide residues in chestnut by using QuEChERS-GC/MS was proposed. By comparing the different amount of extraction solvent, quantity of sample, water removal agent and adsorbent, the best combination of chestnut pretreatment was selected. Extraction of chestnuts after purification was detected by GC/MS. All of the pesticides linearity was more than 0.998. The detection limits were from 0.010 mg/kg to 0.034 mg/kg. The average recovery rates were from 80.1% to 105.4% with relative standard derivations of 3.5% to 8.9%. This method was rapid, simple, accurate and reliable. It can be applied to determine the organophosphorus pesticide multiresidues in chestnut.
