TI  - Splitless large-volume GC-MS injection for the analysis of organophosphorus and 
      organochlorine pesticides in vegetables using a miniaturised ethyl acetate 
      extraction.

AB  - A simple, rapid and sensitive multiresidue method has been developed for the 
      determination of ten organophosphorus and organochlorine pesticides, commonly 
      used in crop protection. The analysis uses a miniaturised extraction with ethyl 
      acetate followed by large volume injection (10 microL) GC-EI-MS analysis in SIM 
      (selective ion monitoring) mode. Sensitivity and selectivity of the method were 
      acceptable with limits of detection (LODs) lower than 0.01 mg kg-1, except for 
      endosulfan alpha and beta (0.05 mg kg-1). Average recoveries of between 63-99% 
      were obtained and good linearity was observed in the range from 0.01 to 1.00 mg 
      kg-1. Repeatability and reproducibility studies yielded relative standard 
      deviations lower than 20% in all the cases. The method was applied to the 
      analysis of 110 tomato, pepper and cucumber samples, as part of the monitoring 
      programme of the Association of Producers and Exporters of Fruits and Vegetables 
      of Almeria.
