Foodstuff - Quick Method for the Analysis of Multiple Highly Polar Pesticides and their Metabolites in Foodstuff Involving Extraction with Acidified Methanol and Measurement by LC- or IC-MS/MS (QuPPe-Method)

Scope

This document specifies a procedure for the analysis of residues of highly polar pesticides and metabolites, which are not amenable to common multiresidue methods, in various food commodities of plant and animal origin, including fruits, vegetables, cereals, pulses, oily seeds, nuts, milk, liver and honey. The method was developed at the EURL-SRM hosted at CVUA Stuttgart [1], [2], [3] and has been collaboratively studied on a large number of commodity/pesticide combinations. Guidelines for calibration are outlined in CEN/TS 17061:2019.
