초록

본 연구는 과실류에 잔류하는 ETU 분석을 위해 LC/APCI-MS를 이용하여 신속 정확한 분석법 검증을 실시하였다. 시료 중 존재하는 ETU 성분 추출로 사용된 용매는 $CH_2Cl_2$이며, 시료 전처리 시 cys-HCl 0.4 g, $Na_2CO_34g$을 사용할 때 최적의 회수율을 나타냈다. 분석 시 $C_{18}$ column으로 분리되어 나온 ETU의 머무름 시간대에서 어떠한 간섭현상도 보이지 않았으며 232 nm에서 최고의 흡수파장을 보였다. 귤 시료에 ETU를 첨가한 결과값의 직선성은 적합한 것으로 나타났다($R^2$=1). 정밀성과 정확성은 0.05-1.0 mg/kg에서 RSD$\leq$10%이며, 회수율은 평균 80% 이상의 결과를 보였다. 배, 포도, 바나나의 회수율도 마찬가지로 80% 이상으로 나타났다. 본 실험방법으로 시중에 유통중인 과실류를 구입하여 모니터링을 한 결과 ETU는 오렌지 과피에서 4건이 검출되었고 최고 잔류치는 $73.6{\mu}g/kg$ 이었다. 귤 과피는 3건 검출 되었고 최고 잔류치는 $29.8{\mu}g/kg$이었다. 본 연구의 과실류에 잔류하는 ETU 분석법은 시료 전처리에 필요한 시간을 줄일 수 있으며 전처리 단계를 간소화함으로써 오염도를 줄였다. 기존에 발표된 논문에 비해 전처리 시간은 약 20분 정도 소요되며, 분석 시 재현성, 정밀성 등을 고려할 때 과실류에 존재하는 ETU 분석법에 적합한 것으로 사료된다.

A rapid and very sensitive high-performance liquid chromatography/atmospheric-pressure chemical-ionization mass spectrometry method to detect ethylenethiourea (ETU) fungicide residues in fruits was developed. Methylene chloride was used as the surface extraction solvent for the target component. Recovery rates improved when cysteine hydrochloride and sodium carbonate were added to product prior to fortification. The limits of detection and quantification were approximately 0.006 and 0.02 mg/kg, respectively, from mandarin oranges. Recoveries from mandarin oranges, oranges, bananas, and pears, spiked in the range of 0.05-0.5 mg/kg, averaged 80-100%. The proposed method was used to monitor the presence of ETU in commercial fruits purchased from different markets in Seoul, Korea. ETU was found in four orange peels and in three mandarin orange peel samples. The highest ETU residue levels were $73.6{\mu}g/kg$ and $29.8{\mu}g/kg$.
