Validation of the AOAC 2007.01 method for pesticides residues analysis in oranges and mandarins in LATU
Resumen:
All over the world pesticides are used to control plagues on excessively worked lands. However, although they could be necessary, these can have negative effects on population. Clearly, this is the situation in citrus production, so fruit growers and exporters need a laboratory available with validated and accredited methods for the corresponding analyses. In Uruguay, the European Union is one of the most important buyers for citrus fruits. Consequently, as an answer to maximum residues limits demanded by UE legislation, we present in this work an analytical method developed in order to satisfy these requirements. Based on the AOAC 2007.01 official method [1], we validated a methodology using GC-μECD and HPLC-FLD with GC-MS confirmation for Malathion, Chlorpyriphos, Captan, Folpet, Prochloraz, Imazalil, Thiabendazole (TBZ) and o-Phenylphenol (OPP).
