Objective A gas chromatography-flame photometric detector (sulfur filter) [GC-FPD(S)] method for the residues determination of ferbam, propineb and maneb in fruit and vegetable samples was established. The method could improve the specificities of detection for dithiocarbamates. Methods By alkaline buffer with strong chelating agents, insoluble heavy metal salts were converted into water-soluble sodium salts. With ion pair methylation, dithiocarbamates could be converted into esters which could be used for GC-FPD(S). Methodological verification was carried out based on optimized sample pretreatment and chromatographic conditions. Results The square of dithiocarbamates concentration exhibited a good linear relationship in certain range. The detection limits of fenbam, propineb and maneb were 0.1,0.5, and 0.5 mg/kg respectively. Furthermore, the average recoveries were 75.3%-94.6%, and the maximum relative standard deviations was 14.1%. Conclusion This method was simple, accurate and reliable for residues detemination of dithiocarbamates pesticides in fruit and vegetable samples. All indexes meet the requirements of pesticide residue detection.
