In this study, the original Quick, Easy, Cheap, Effective, Rugged and Safe method was used for the extraction of imidacloprid and pyrimethanil followed by a rapid clean-up through dispersive solid-phase extraction technique with primary secondary amine sorbent and magnesium sulfate in shallot. Residues were analyzed using LC-tandem mass spectrometry in positive-ion electrospray ionization mode. The limits of detection and quantification were estimated to be 0.006 and 0.02mg/kg, respectively. The samples were fortified at two different concentration levels (0.2 and 1.0mg/kg), and the recoveries ranged between 79.7 and 83.9% with relative standard deviation values<6%. The method was successfully applied for the establishment of the pre-harvest residue limits (PHRL). The rate of disappearance of imidacloprid and pyrimethanil on shallot was described with first-order kinetics (imidacloprid, y2=0.9670; pyrimethanil, y2=0.9841), with half-lives of 2.87 and 2.08days, respectively. Based on the dissipation patterns of the pesticide residues, the PHRL was recommended at 7.86mg/kg for 14days (PHRL14) and 1.98mg/kg for 7days (PHRL7) before harvest for imidacloprid, and 21.64mg/kg for 7days (PHRL7) and 9.28mg/kg for 4days (PHRL4) before harvest for pyrimethanil in shallot.
