Abstract
An LC‐MS/MS method has been developed and validated for the determination of dichlorvos in ground and surface waters. The aqueous samples (20.0 mL) are led through a silica‐based C8+WAX mixed‐mode SPE cartridges. Such a step successfully eliminates humic substances and other interferences that induce a matrix effect. Since the recovery of dichlorvos is 100% and the matrix effect is eliminated, the calibration standards prepared in DI water can be used for accurate and rapid determination of dichlorvos in various aqueous samples. The quantification limit is 0.01 µg/L.
