    Abstract:
    The aim of this study was to develop an analytical method for the simultaneous determination of ultra-trace levels of 35 organophosphorus pesticide residues in Sanjie Zhentong capsules, a traditional Chinese medicine prescription. A method based on multiclass and multiresidue sample preparation was developed. First, samples were hydrated with water at 4°C. A ratio of 1:3 sample/water was used for each of the sample amounts. Then, different extraction solvents were screened. This step was followed by a dispersive solid-phase extraction clean-up procedure using both primary secondary amine and polyamide. A comprehensive sensitive multiresidue liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry method was investigated and validated. Good linearity was achieved in the range of 10-500 μg/kg for each analyte. The average recovery ranged from 70 to 120%, except for methamidophos, fonophos, diazinon, and chlorpyriphos-ethyl, the recoveries of which ranged from 60-70% at the lower concentration level. The precision values were lower than 10% for all the compounds in three concentration levels. The limits of detection and limits of quantification values were 0.01-2.1 and 0.05-3.4 μg/kg, respectively. The matrix effects were determined, and most of the compounds showed signal suppression. Finally, this optimized procedure was applied for the analysis of real samples.
