THE PROBLEMS OF DETERMINATION OF PESTICIDE RESIDUES IN CEREAL PRODUCTS AND THE WAYS OF THEIR DECISIONarticle

Taking into account that cereal branch is important part of Ukrainian's export it is necessary to revise the approaches to control of quality indices especially of pesticides residues in grain in order to provide the branch with modern express methods which meet the requirements of European standards. The comparative analysis of methods for determination of pesticide residues in grain and in processing products which were harmonized in Ukraine and those used in EU countries has been carried out. It is reasonable to create the methods for the determination of pesticide residues complexes in grain on the basis of standard European method EN 15662:2008 (QuEChERS) using GLC/MS, NPD, ECD and HPLC/MS/MS/PAD.
