Abstract:

A novel method was developed for the determination of seven fungicide residues in fruit juices using temperaturecontrolled
ionic liquid dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (IL-DLLME) coupled with high performance liquid
chromatography with photodiode array detection (HPLC-PDA). Parameters affecting the extraction performance such as the
type and volume of extraction and dispersive solvents, temperature, extraction time and centrifugation time were studied and
optimized. Under optimized conditions, the enrichment factors ranged from 64 to 101, and the limits of detection of the established
method were in the range of 4.3–13.0 μg/L. The recoveries from apple, pear, grape, peach and orange juices at three fortified levels
of 0.02, 0.05 and 0.10 mg/L ranged from 70.0% to 116.2% with relative standard deviations (RSDs) less than 9.8%. Therefore, this
method can meet the requirements for the determination of fungicide residues in various fruit juices.
