Abstract

A capillary electrophoresis-tandem mass spectrometry (CE-MS/MS) method for the determination of halosulfuron-methyl (HSU) residue in samples of sugarcane juice and tomato is introduced and validated. The samples were submitted to a QuEChERS extraction procedure followed by electrophoretic separation in NH4HCO3 electrolyte (adjusted to pH 8.5) and detection by electrospray-tandem mass spectrometry. The total HSU migration took place in less than 3.5 min, and the detection was accomplished by monitoring three fragmentation processes of this anion: m/z 435-182, 139, and 83. The R-2 values for concentrations up to 100 ppb (mu g kg(-1)) were, respectively, 0.992, 0.992, and 0.978. Recovery values for samples spiked at three concentration levels (10, 20 and 50 ppb) were in the range of 96-104% with standard deviation not greater than 5.0%. The limit of detection for HSU in sugarcane juice and tomato was 2 ppb for both samples. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. (AU)
