This work reports a rapid, specific and sensitive multi-residue method based on the Quick Easy Cheap Effective Rugged and Safe (QuEChERS) sample preparation method and gas chromatography with mass spectrometric detection in the selected ion monitoring mode (GC-MS-SIM) using one quantification ion and two identification ions for the routine analysis of 203 pesticides in rice paddies. Analyses of fortified rice paddy samples were performed at different levels (0.05, 0.20 and 0.50 mg kg(-1)). Mean recoveries from five replicates ranged from 75% to 115%, with coefficients of variation lower than 17%. The limit of quantification was in the range of 0.002-0.05 mg kg(-1) for the pesticides. 1040 rice paddy samples were analyzed for method application.

Microfibres released from textiles are one of the most common types of microplastics (MPs) found in the environment. Whether they are synthetic or natural, they can undergo degradation in different environmental matrices. This may result in the leaching of a variety of chemicals, mainly textile dyes and additives of high toxicity that need to be regulated.

Animal feed significantly influences the content and quality of animal products consumed by humans and plays a crucial role in the food chain. To simultaneously analyze 345 pesticide residues in poultry feed, a modified Quick, Easy, Cheap, Effective, Rugged, and Safe (QuEChERS) method was developed, utilizing gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS). Validation studies were conducted with spiked pesticide standards, and commercial poultry feed samples were analyzed.

While biomonitoring approaches are frequently employed for assessing chemical exposure, many of them are constrained to a limited number of target chemicals, running counter to our current understanding of interactions within chemical mixtures and the growing evidence of multiple exposures within human populations. Although authors agree on the need for more comprehensive methodologies, literature provides insufficient evidence of the multifaceted nature of exposure and of the benefit of widening the analytical scope to improve exposure assessment. Moreover, although multiple exposures are generally admitted, very few are known on the scale of the human chemical exposome.

At present, the matrix interference in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is still a great challenge for multi-residue pesticides analysis. Herein, an alcohol/salt aqueous two-phase system (ATPS) based on n-propanol and (NH)SO was developed by comparing the binodal curve phase diagrams and the extraction rates of pesticides. The specific extraction conditions, including the composition of the ATPS, temperature, pH, and extraction time were explored through single factor experiments, and subsequently optimized using orthogonal array design and response surface methodology.
