Reagents
Florisil, also known as activated magnesium silicate had a 30-60
particle mesh size and was manufactured by Fluka Analytical.
CH2Cl2 was of the Aldrich Brand and Reagent Grade.
Na2SO4 and alumina were manufactured by Fisher Scientific and were both reagent grade.

Pesticide Extraction Procedure for the Roma Tomato
“Development of Matrix Solid Phase Dispersion (MSPD) Method for the Determination of Pesticide Residues in Tomatoes by GC/MS”. Published in the Journal of the Brazilian Chemical Society. (2006)
3
2.0 g of Roma tomato were ground with 0.5 g of alumina with a mortar and pestle.
The mixture was separated by column chromatography. Mobile phase: 20 mL of CH2Cl2
Stationary phase: 0.5 g Florisil and 3.0 g of Na2SO4.

Ion Search of Mass Spectrum
Pentadecanoic acid, 13-methyl ester from the carbon components of the plant
Dibutyl Pthalate a plasticizer
No pesticides; known for low pesticide content.
Solvent seems to be interfering with peaks therefore, solvent delay time was increased.

Iceberg Lettuce
Ocean Mist Brand
Originated from the Ocean Mist Farms in California, U.S.A
Unwashed prior to analysis
![Page 13: Pesticide Presentation](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052310/5553f1eab4c90577468b4770/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Pesticide Extraction Procedure for the Iceberg Lettuce
5.9 g of iceberg lettuce was ground in a mortar and pestle with 2 mL of CH2Cl2.
The mixture was gravity filtered and the solvent was then subjected to the same column chromatography procedure as was utilized for the tomato.

Pesticide Extraction Procedure for the Macintosh Apple
One apple was ground in a blender.
4 g was mixed with CH2Cl2.
CH2Cl2 was decanted and concentrated down to 1 mL.
Subjected to the same column chromatography parameters as before; except doubling of the reagents.

Sources of Error
Used Florisil which had a particle mesh size of 30-60.
However, several sources state that a 60-100 particle mesh size is suitable for pesticide residue analysis (SIGMA)4
