    Abstract:
    A multiresidue method was developed to determine 19 carbamate pesticides in tea samples. Optimizations of different parameters, such as the type of extraction solvents, clean-up cartridges, and elution solvents were carried out. The developed method used acetonitrile as extraction solvent, amino cartridge for adsorbents and acetone-n-hexane as the eluting solution. Nineteen carbamate residues were then analyzed by high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) with fluorescence detector. The present results showed good linearity by correlation coefficients of more than 0.9999 for all analyses. Limits of detection and quantification varied from 0.0005-0.023 mg L(- 1), 0.008-0.077 mg L(- 1), respectively. Recoveries of sixteen carbamate pesticides ranged from 65% to 135% at the spiked level of 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 mg L(- 1). The relative standard deviations were lower than 20% and coefficient of variations were lower than 15%. The results indicate that the proposed method provides an effective multi and trace level screening determination of carbamate pesticides residues for tea samples.
