[Determination of 15 organophosphorus pesticides in cucumber, tomato and pepper samples by capillary gas chromatography with gel permeation chromatographic clean-up].

Fifteen organophosphorus pesticide residues in vegetable samples were extracted and cleaned-up by gel permeation chromatography and detected by capillary GC-FPD. An alternative validation method was established based on GC-NPD detection on an HP-1701 column. The eluting profiles of 15 compounds on a gel permeation column (10 mm i.d. x 200 mm, SX-3) eluted by 1 mL/min cyclohexane-ethyl acetate (volume ratio of 1:1) were established according to GC quantitation. Minimum detection limits of this method were between 5 x 10(-4) mg/kg to 5 x 10(-3) mg/kg. The average fortified recoveries and coefficients of variation of the method were determined. The results show that recoveries are between 77.8%-106%, with an average RSD of 0.10%-16.6%.
