Abstract

Condition of Ion-Trap gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) for rapid screening of 206-pesticides residues in agricultural foodstuffs was optimized. As applying a wide-bore column (10 m${\times}$0.53 mm, DF 0.25 um) connected with a fused silica restrictor (0.6 m${\times}$0.1 mm), a significant retention time reduction was obtained. Additionally, the shape of peaks was sharper and higher than classical GC's and GC-MS's, which allowed lower detection limits. To easily manage many spectral data, both of Electron Ionization(EI) and Chemical Ionization(CI) techniques were adopted in screening procedure. At the following steps, MS-MS technique were used to confirm screened analytes in complicated matrices.

206종의 농약성분을 신속하게 분석하기 위한 가스크로마토그래피-질량분석기 이용방법을 최적화 하였다. Wide-bore 컬럼을 채택함으로써 기존의 캐필러리 컬럼을 이용할 때에 비해 분리능을 비슷하게 유지하면서도 분석시간이 1/2이상 단축되고, 감도는 더욱 개선되었다. 시료의 성분이 복잡하고 분석대상 농약이 많은 경우에도, EI와 CI 스크리닝 결과를 비교함으로써 방해물질에 의한 허위정보(False Positive)를 상쇄할 수 있었다. 허위정보에 대한 위험이 적어지면서 시험용액의 정제를 간소화 할 수 있어 전체적인 분석과정을 간소화 할 수 있었다. 또한 검출이 예상되는 성분에 대해서만 확인실험을 함으로써 검사시간을 절약하고 검사의 정확도를 향상시킬 수 있었다.
