QuEChERS method included extraction of the sample with ethyl acetate and cleanup by treatment with PSA and graphatised carbon. Final clear extracts of ethyl acetate were concentrated under vacuum to almost dryness and reconstituted into hexane. The residues of propamocarbwere estimated using gas chromatograph-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Propamocarb presented a distinct peak at retention time of 8.962 min. Consistent recoveries of propamocarb ranging from 87 to 92 percent were observed when samples were spiked at 0.10, 0.50 and 1.00 mg·kg–1 levels. The limit of quantification (LOQ) of this method was determined to be 0.10 mg·kg–1.展开更多

Recoveries at four different spiking concentrations of 0.01, 0.05, 0.1 and 0.2 mg kg–1 ranged from 87 to 96% were achieved with good repeatability and RSD of 1% - 6%. The average initial deposits of 0.23 and 0.45 mg kg–1 were observed after last application of indoxacarb @ 52.2 and 104.4 g. a.i. ha–1 at recommended and double the recommended dosages, respectively. The residues in cauliflower dissipated below its LOQ of 0.01 mg kg–1 after 7 days and its half-life periods were observed to be 1.12 and 1.31 days, respectively, at single and double the dosages. Keeping in view 80 g consumption of cauliflower curds per day for a 55 kg person, theoretical maximum residue contribution (TMRC) of indoxacarb when calculated from maximum residues observed on 0 day samples at recommended and double the recommended dosages, respectively, were found to be 20.8 and 36.8 μg in comparison to its acceptable daily intake (ADI) of 550 μg, which is quite safe.展开更多
