Automated Photochemically Induced Method for the Quantitation of the Neonicotinoid Thiacloprid in Lettuce.
MOLECULES(2019)
摘要
In this work, we present an automated luminescence sensor for the quantitation of the insecticide thiacloprid, one of the main neonicotinoids, in lettuce samples. A simple and automated manifold was constructed, using multicommutated solenoid valves to handle all solutions. The analyte was online irradiated with UV light to produce a highly fluorescent photoproduct (lambda (exc)/lambda (em) = 305/370 nm/nm) that was then retained on a solid support placed in the flow cell. In this way, the pre-concentration of the photoproduct was achieved in the detection area, increasing the sensitivity of the analytical method. A method-detection limit of 0.24 mg kg(-1) was achieved in real samples, fulfilling the Maximum Residue Limit (MRL) of The European Union for thiacloprid in lettuce (1 mg kg(-1)). A sample throughput of eight samples per hour was obtained. Recovery experiments were carried out at values close to the MRL, obtaining recovery yields close to 100% and relative standard deviations lower than 5%. Hence, this method would be suitable for routine analyses in quality control, as an alternative to other existing methods.
