Confirmation of carbamate pesticides by liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray ionization mass spectrometry

A method was developed to separate, detect and qualify aldicarb, bendiocarb, carbaryl, carbofuran, ethiofencarb, methomyl, methiocarb, propoxur in meats and fruits. Experimental beef and fork samples were fortified with 0.05mg/kg of carbamate pesticides for analysis. Carbamate-detected pear by HPLC fluorescence detector(HPLC/FLS) are extracted with acetonitril and refined by solid phase extraction(SPE) filled with aminopropyl-bonded silca, In the following step, the injected materials into LC/MS are analyzed to result in the fact that bendiocarb, carbaryl, carbofuran, ethiofencarb, methomyl, methiocarb, propoxur presents several sorts of fraction ions following with; [M+H]$^{+}$, [M+Na]$^{+}$,［M-CONH$CH_3$]$^{+}$, [M-OCONH$CH_3$]$^{+}$. In addition, ethiofencarb presents [M-SCH$_2$$CH_3$]$^{+}$ ion distinctive and aldicarb presents [M+Na]$^{+}$ and [M-OCONH$CH_3$]$^{+}$ ion which is the most decisive fraction ion for pesticides such as bendiocarb, carbaryl, carbofuran, ethiofencarb, methiocarb, methomyl, propoxur excluding [M+H]$^{+}$ ion. However, [M-OCONH$CH_3$]$^{+}$ and [M-OCONH$CH_3$]$^{+}$ fraction ion charactering carbamate pesticides are detected most efficiently with fragment voltage 50ev. As a result, for rluantitative analysis, [M+Na]$^{+}$ ion is the most decisive ion for detection of aldicarb and [M+H]$^{+}$ ion is the most decisive fraction ion for Pesticides such as bendiocarb, carbaryl, carbofuran, ethiofencarb, methiocarb, methomyl, propoxur. Carbaryl-detected pear by HPLC/FLS are analyzed by L/MS and the result shows that [M+H]$^{+}$ and [M-CONH$CH_3$]$^{+}$ ions charactering carbaryl are detected.ering carbaryl are detected.
