    Abstract:
    Acetamiprid and pyridaben are highly efficient insecticides widely used to protect leafy vegetables against various pests, such as Phyllotreta striolata, but analyses of their residual behaviors applied in mixtures in cabbage fields are primarily lacking. Herein, field trials were performed by spraying 50% acetamiprid-pyridaben wettable powder (50% WP) once at a dose of 150 g of active ingredient per hectare in 12 representative provinces of China under Good Agricultural Practices. The residues of acetamiprid and pyridaben were detected using modified Quick, Easy, Cheap, Effective, Rugged, and Safe (QuEChERS) and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry, together with an assessment of their dietary risks. The average recoveries of the two insecticides were 84.6-104%, and the relative standard deviations were 0.898-10.1%. The residual concentrations of acetamiprid and pyridaben at the preharvest interval of 7 days were <0.364 and 0.972 mg/kg, respectively, and less than their maximum residue limits in cabbage (0.5 mg/kg for acetamiprid and 2 mg/kg for pyridaben) in China. The chronic and acute risk values of acetamiprid and pyridaben were 0.0787-33.3%, implying acceptable health hazards to Chinese consumers. In conclusion, applying 50% WP in cabbage fields under Good Agricultural Practices is acceptable. These results provide essential data for using mixtures of acetamiprid and pyridaben in cabbage fields.
