    Abstract:
    The dissipation and residue levels of thiamethoxam and its metabolite clothianidin in cowpea were investigated under field conditions. Samples of cowpea were analyzed using a QuEChERS technique with ultra-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. The recoveries were 86.5-118.9% for thiamethoxam and 75.6-104.1% for clothianidin, with the coefficient of variation of < 13%. The water dispersible granule formulation of thiamethoxam was applied on cowpea at 30 and 45 g active ingredient ha-1 in accordance with good agricultural practice. The half-life of thiamethoxam in cowpea was 0.8-1.6 days. The cowpea samples were gathered at 3, 7, and 10 days after the last application, and the residues of thiamethoxam in cowpea were < 0.005-0.054 mg kg-1, while those of clothianidin were < 0.005-0.008 mg kg-1. The final residues of thiamethoxam and clothianidin were below the European Union (EU) maximum residue level (0.3 mg kg-1 for thiamethoxam; 0.2 mg kg-1 for clothianidin) in cowpea after a preharvest interval (PHI) of 7 days. This study provided basic data on the use and safety of thiamethoxam and clothianidin in cowpea to help the Chinese government formulate a maximum residue level for thiamethoxam in cowpea.
