QuEChERS-Based Method for the Analysis of OPP (sum)
A QuEChERS-based method for the analysis of 2-phenylphenol
(sum) is introduced (AcH-QuEChERS). The method involves an
acidic hydrolysis under strong conditions. Measurement is
preferably conducted by LC-MS/MS.

Compilation of Residue Findings of QuPPe Compounds 2024
The compilation of residue findings of QuPPe compounds in
various food products, analysed in 2024, was uploaded. Aim of these annual compilations of residue findings is to help OfLs to localize SRM-analyte/matrix combinations that are worthwhile monitoring.

Analysis of Acidic Pesticides and Metabolites via CEN-QuEChERS and FA-QuEChERS
A New Version of the Method for Acidic Pesticides and
Metabolites via CEN-QuEChERS and FA-QuEChERS (employing
Formic Acid) was released.
Recoveries of 42 compounds via CEN-QuEChERS and FA-
QuEChERS are compared and the theoretical background
is discussed.

UPDATE: Analysis of residues of dithiocarbamate fungicides in food of plant origin with low-oil content involving cleavage into carbon disulfide, partitioning into isooctane and measurement by GC-MS/MS or GC-ECD
The EURL common-moiety method for dithiocarbamate analysis in
food of plant origin with low-oil content via GC-methods was
updated. Typos were corrected regarding the working solutions
to be used in connection with the stated pipetting scheme for
exemplary CS2 calibration solutions.

Analysis of Residues of Cypermethrin Mixtures in Food employing QuEChERS and LC-MS/MS
A new QuEChERS-based LC-MS/MS method was developed
allowing determination of cypermethrin-related residues in
food. LC-MS/MS achieves a good resolution of the four
cypermethrin enantiomeric pairs and circumvents the
quantification problems occurring in GC-applications due
to thermal isomerization. Sufficient sensitivity was
achieved to allow controlling the current MRLs of
cypermethrin and to separately quantify the share of the
toxicologically critical alpha-cypermethrin (cis-II) at
these levels.

UPDATE: Analysis of residues of dithiocarbamate fungicides in food of plant origin with low-oil content involving cleavage into carbon disulfide, partitioning into isooctane and measurement by GC-MS/MS or GC-ECD
The EURL common-moiety method for dithiocarbamate analysis in
food of plant origin with low-oil content via GC-methods was
updated. Type and volume of added tin(II)chloride salt for
the reductive cleavage were corrected.
About EURL
The concept of the EU Reference Laboratories (EURLs, former CRLs) and National Reference Laboratories (NRLs) is laid down in the Regulation (EC) No 625/2017 of the European Parliament and of the Council. The overall objective of the EURLs and NRLs is to improve the quality, accuracy and comparability of the results generated by official control laboratories.
