Conclusions

In summary, the degradation regularity of 271 pesticides in

aged Oolong tea over 120 days was studied by the developed

GC-MS/MS method. The results indicate that >70 of the 271

pesticides decreased exponentially or logarithmically in aged

Oolong tea, con¿rming that the pesticides in aged Oolong tea

degrade slowly and the concentrations of pesticides decrease

with the increase of time intervals over 4 months. Further

discussion of the different classes of pesticides suggests

that most of the organophosphorus pesticides degraded in

accordance with degradation trends A and B in aged Oolong

tea and that most of the organochlorine pesticides decreased

according to degradation trend E in aged Oolong tea.

The pesticide residues in aged Oolong tea were predicted

accurately by subtracting the degradation value of target

pesticides on a speci¿c day from the logarithmical curves,

generated by plotting determination time (day) and the difference

between each measured value and ¿rst-time-measured value of

target pesticides on the

x

- and

y

-axes, respectively. The predicted

results of 14 pesticides were satisfactory by comparing them with

measured results at one of the concentrations of the Youden pair.

It is our hope that the obtained degradation regularity of 271

pesticides in aged Oolong tea will be helpful for studying the

stability of standard material of multipesticide residues in tea. In

addition, we propose that the prediction procedure of pesticides

in aged Oolong tea in the present study may offer a new method

for the error analysis of multiresidue of pesticides in other

complex matrixes of international, interlaboratory study.
