AB  - A fast and simple multi-residue method for the analysis of 15 organophosphorus 
      (OP), 17 organochlorine (OC), 8 pyrethroids (PYR), 12 N-methyl-carbamate (NMC) 
      pesticide residues and bromopropylate in honey is presented. Ready-to-use 
      EXtrelutNT 20 column, eluted with dichloromethane, was used to extract the 
      pesticide residues from the aqueous-acetone honey sample, obtaining a clean 
      extract directly analyzable. Determination was carried out by gas chromatography 
      (GC) coupled with flame photometric detector (FPD) for OP compounds and by GC 
      coupled with mass spectrometry detector (MSD) for OC and PYR pesticides and 
      bromopropylate. The NMC pesticides were analysed by liquid chromatography-double 
      derivatization coupled with spectrofluorimetric detector (LC/DD/Fl). This method 
      allows the determination of the 53 pesticide residues at low concentrations 
      (0.0005-0.074 mg/kg) and can be used to assess the compliance with the Maximum 
      Residues Levels (MRLs) set by the European Union. The performance of the method 
      was evaluated and specificity, linearity, recovery, repeatability, 
      reproducibility, limit of quantification (LOQ) and limit of detection (LOD) were 
      determined. A good linearity (r(2)>/= 0.99) was found in the range 0.0005-0.074 
      mg/kg for the majority of the compounds studied. Most of the pesticides had 
      recoveries in the range 70-103 % and values of relative standard deviation (RSD) 
      < 20 for repeatability and reproducibility, showing good accuracy and precision 
      of the method. Aldicarb partially degraded in aldicarb sulphoxide during the 
      analytical procedure, giving anomalous values. The LOQ for all pesticides 
      investigated was from 0.0005 to 0.025 mg/kg while the LOD ranged from 0.0002 to 
      0.008 mg/kg.
