Abstract:
Establishing an effective method for insecticide residue analysis is critical for food safety control. This study reported a convenient and sensitive approach for extracting and analyzing trace chloronicotinyl insecticides (CNIs) in honey samples. A magnetic covalent organic framework (Fe3O4@PyTTA-DHPA-COFs) was synthesized and employed as an adsorbent in magnetic solid phase extraction (m-SPE). The Fe3O4@PyTTA-DHPA-COFs exhibited efficient and rapid adsorption (5 min) for CNIs. The m-SPE-HPLC-MS/MS method for trace analysis of CNIs in honey samples was established with good linearity (0.5-200 ng g-1) and a low limit of quantitation (0.05-0.95 ng g-1). CNI residues (0.93-4.38 ng g-1) were detected in real honey samples, much lower than the maximum residue levels (MRLs) of CNIs in honey. The recoveries of CNIs in spiked honey samples were 72.1-106% with RSD < 9.5%. The successful application demonstrates the potential of this method in trace analysis of CNIs residues.
