Abstract:

This study established a detection method for fenpyrazone in maize using high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS). QuEChERS method was optimized for effective extraction and purification of fenpyrazone in samples. The results showed that there was a good linear relationship in the concentration range of 1-100 μg·L-1 for fenpyrazone with correlation coefficient greater than 0.99. The limit of quantitation (LOQ) was 6 μg·kg-1. At three spiked concentration levels of 6, 20 and 100 μg·kg-1 for fenpyrazone, the average recoveries were 89.0%-90.4%, with relative standard deviations (RSDs) of 0.8%-2.5% (n=6). The method is simple, efficient, sensitive, accurate and suitable for determination of fenpyrazone in maize.
