Published: October 2011

A field trial was carried out to understand the persistence behaviour of tetraconazole in mango and also in the soil of mango orchard following five applications @ 50 g a.i./ha (T(1)) and 100 g a.i./ha (T(2)). The initial deposits were found to be 0.23 and 0.38 μg/g for T(1) and T(2) doses. The theoretical maximum residue contribution (TMRC) of tetraconazole in dietary exposure appeared to be toxicologically safe for consumption as compared with maximum permissible intake (MPI). The half-life values of tetraconazole in mango were in the range of 4-5 days. The harvest samples of mango and soil were free from tetraconazole residues.

A matrix solid-phase dispersion method for the extraction of seven pesticides from mango and papaya.

Departamento de Química, Universidade Federal de Sergipe, Av. Marechal Rondon s/n°, Jardim Rosa Elze, 49100-000 São Cristóvão/SE, Brazil.

A simple and effective extraction method based on matrix solid-phase dispersion was developed to determine trichlorfon, pyrimethanil, methyl parathion, tetraconazole, thiabendazole, imazalil, and tebuconazole in papaya and mango using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry with selected ion monitoring. Different parameters of the method were evaluated, such as type of solid-phase (silica-gel, neutral alumina, and Florisil), the amount of solid-phase, and eluent [dichloromethane, ethyl acetate-dichloromethane (4:1, 1:4, 1:1, 2:3, v/v)]. The best results were obtained using 2.
