摘要：We established a method for the simultaneous quantitative analysis of nine organophosphorus pesticides (OPs) and their active oxon forms in water samples using gas chromatography with mass spectrometric detection with solid-phase extraction (SPE). In this method, the lower limit of detection for the nine oxons ranged from 0.5 to 20 ng/ml. Each calibration curve had good linearity, with correlation coefficients (R2) greater than 0.991. In comparing three SPE cartridges, the recovery rate of these compounds extracted from water was highly reproducible using a cartridge of packed silica bonded with C18. The limit of quantification ranged from 2.5 to 200 ng/ml at 500-fold concentrations. When the OPs were examined after chlorination treatment to simulate the water treatment process, they decomposed rapidly and were converted to their oxon forms as primary reaction products of chlorination. Under these established analytical conditions, the behavior of oxons formed in the environment and after water treatment can be determined accurately.
