Abstract
In this work, a new multiresidue analytical method based on MEKC with UV detection combined with SPE as off-line preconcentration strategy, and reversed-electrode polarity stacking mode (REPSM) as on-line stacking procedure, has been developed for the monitoring of 12 pesticides (carbendazim, pirimicarb, metalaxyl, pyrimethanil, procymidone, nuarimol, azoxystrobin, tebufenozide, fenarimol, benalaxyl, penconazole, and tetradifon) that are currently being used in the Canary Islands (Spain). The optimized MEKC buffer, consisting of 100 mM sodium tetraborate and 30 mM SDS at pH 8.5 with 6% v/v 1-propanol, provided baseline resolution of the 12 pesticides in less than 20 min. The developed method was applied to the analysis of mineral, stagnant, and tap water samples. The proposed SPE-REPSM-MEKC-UV method showed high extraction efficiencies with detection limits (LODs) at the low ng/L level providing LOD values down to 64 ng/L for these real samples.

Abstract
An isocratic elution pressurized CEC (pCEC) system was used to separate and determine ten carbamate insecticides. It was found that introduction of the electrical field, supplementary pressure, and SDS in the proposed method greatly improved the speed, column efficiency, selectivity, and repeatability for separation and determination of carbamates. On a capillary column of 75 microm ID packed with 3 microm octadecyl silica, baseline separation and detection of ten analytes was performed by using a mobile phase consisting of 30% v/v ACN and 70% v/v of 5 mmol/L ammonium acetate (pH 6.5) containing 1 mmol/L SDS and 0.01% triethylamine (TEA). Under the optimum conditions ten carbamate insecticides could be completely separated within 20 min. For the real vegetable samples, an SPE procedure for the cleanup of matrices was carried out prior to pCEC analysis. The detection limits of 0.05-1.6 mg/kg for ten carbamates and mean recoveries of 51.3-109.2% for eight kinds of vegetable samples at different concentrations of carbamates with RSD less than 11.4% were obtained, respectively. The proposed method has been proved to be effective in the rapid analysis of carbamate residues in vegetables.

Abstract
In this paper, a multiresidue method for the analysis in soils of metribuzin (M) and its major conversion products, deaminometribuzin (DA), diketometribuzin (DK) and deaminodiketometribuzin (DADK) is developed. Considering the neutral and charged nature of the molecules, micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) is a very efficient method for the separation of these compounds, providing high efficiency and short analysis times. Different electrophoretic parameters were studied to optimize the separation, such as the buffer pH and concentration, sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) concentration, injection conditions and applied voltage. Excellent separation of the studied compounds was achieved within about 7 min. Soil samples were previously extracted using methanol in an ultrasonic bath and then a SPE procedure was applied to pre-concentrate the analytes by passage through a LiChrolut EN sorbent column. Detection limits at the low microgkg(-1) level were obtained. The proposed method has been satisfactorily applied in soil samples showing recoveries ranging from 86.7% to 104.2% and represents a valuable alternative to high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).

Abstract
In this work, a combined methodology using off-line solid-phase extraction (SPE), on-line field-enhanced sample injection (FESI) and coelectroosmotic capillary electrophoresis with UV detection (CE-UV) is developed for the trace analysis of five triazolopyrimidine sulfonanilide pesticides (i.e., flumetsulam, florasulam, cloransulam-methyl, diclosulam and metosulam). An adequate background electrolyte (BGE) was obtained for the separation of these pesticides using hexadimethrine bromide (HDB) as electroosmotic flow (EOF) modifier. This BGE consisted of 0.00042% HDB, 11 mM formic acid, 16 mM ammonium carbonate and 2.5 mM alpha-CD solution at pH 7.6. The use of this running buffer together with the FESI preconcentration method provided limits of detection (LODs) in the low microg/L range (i.e., between 13.0 and 31.5 microg/L). The optimized FESI-CE-UV method was combined with off-line SPE using C(18) cartridges and applied to the determination of the selected group of pesticides in soil samples. Recovery percentages ranged between 50 and 84% in these samples with LODs between 18 and 34 microg/kg. This work shows the great possibilities of the combined use of SPE-FESI-CE-UV to improve CE sensitivity allowing the achievement of LODs similar to other analytical techniques as GC or HPLC.

Abstract
This report describes a novel online field-amplified sample stacking (FASS) procedure to analyze 16 chlorinated acid herbicides. By using a poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)-coated capillary to reduce electroosmotic flow and introducing a methanol-water plug before sample loading, the sample injection time could be very long without loss of sample and separation efficiency. Under the optimized condition, the FASS procedure could provide great sensitivity enhancement (5000-10 000-fold) and satisfactory reproducibility (relative standard deviations of migration times less than 2.4%, relative standard deviations of peak areas less than 8.0%). Combined with cationic surfactant-assisted solid-phase extraction (CSA-SPE), the limit of detection of the herbicides ranged from 0.269 to 20.3 ppt, which are two orders lower than those of the US Environmental Protection Agency standard method 515.1. The CSA-SPE-FASS-CE method was successfully applied to the analysis of local pond water.

Abstract
A rapid, reliable method has been developed for the multi-residue analysis of aniline metabolites of chlorpropham in potato samples. The method involves the precolumn derivatization of aniline metabolites with 5-(4,6-dichloro-s-triazin-2-ylamino) fluorescein (DTAF) and their subsequent separation and determination by micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography with laser-induced fluorescence detection (MEKC-LIF). The optimum procedure includes a derivatization step of the aniline metabolites (3-chloroaniline, 3-chloro-4-hydroxyaniline and 3-chloro-4-methoxyaniline) at 40 degrees C for 40 min and a 5-fold dilution prior to MEKC analysis, which is conducted within about 7 min using negative-charged mixed micelles (SDS/Triton X-100) in the running buffer. Under these conditions, the DTAF-anilines were readily detected at 0.3-3.1 microg/L level with a precision of 4.8-6.4%. These results indicate that negative-charged mixed surfactant MEKC-LIF is useful as a selective, rapid, and sensitive tool for the determination of these anilines and surpasses other electrophoretic alternatives based on the use of fluorescein-isothiocyanate (FITC) as label reagent. Finally, the potato matrix showed no significant effects on the derivatization and determination of these analytes, since the analytical figures of merit for the real samples were similar to those obtained in aqueous solutions, and the average recovery at fortification levels of 10-250 microg/kg was over 97%.

Abstract
We describe a detailed study on the possibility of analyzing aminated pesticides and metabolites using pre-column derivatization with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) and their subsequent separation and detection by cyclodextrin capillary electrophoresis-laser-induced fluorescence (CE-LIF) detection. Different variables affecting the derivatization reaction (pH, FITC concentration, reaction time and temperature) and those related with the separation itself (buffer concentration, addition of various organic modifiers, pH, applied voltage and injection time) were studied. The limit of detection obtained was between 0.45 and 3.48 microg litre(-1) showing a relative standard deviation between 0.26 and 2.08% at a concentration level of 50 microg litre(-1).

Abstract
In this work, on-line preconcentration strategies were investigated for the multi-residue analysis of pesticides in drinking water and vegetables using micellar electrokinetic chromatography. Among the on-line strategies, sweeping and stacking with reverse migration of micelles (SRMM), with and without the insertion of a plug of water before sample injection, were contrasted. A new version of SRMM was also introduced. The modification consisted of momentarily applying a positive voltage at the inlet vial right after sample has been injected, increasing the efficiency by which the analytes are captured. Nine pesticides from different classes, carbendazim (benzimidazole), simazine, atrazine, propazine and ametryn (triazine), diuron and linuron (urea), carbaryl and propoxur (carbamate), were baseline separated in less than 6 min with a electrolyte composed of 20 mmol l(-1) phosphate buffer at pH 2.5, containing 25 mmol l(-1) sodium dodecyl sulfate and 10% methanol. Limits of detection (LODs) in the order of 2-46 microg l(-1) for the pesticides under investigation were obtained solely using the on-line strategies. Enrichment factors of 3-18-fold were obtained. These factors were computed as the improvement of the concentration LODs with respect to the reference condition (injection of 10 s at 2.5 kPa pressure). The proposed methodologies were applied to the analysis of pesticides in complex matrices such as carrot extracts where the detection of 2.5 microg l(-1) was illustrated. By combining off-line solid-phase extraction and the proposed on-line strategies, the detection of pesticides in drinking water at the 0.1 microg l(-1) level was conceived.

Abstract
A method based on solid-phase microextraction (SPME) and capillary electrophoresis/mass spectrometry (CE/ MS) is described for determining simultaneously five acidic pesticides (o-phenylphenol, ioxynil, haloxyfop, acifluorfen, picloram) in fruits. The CE device is coupled to an electrospray interface by a commercial sheath-flow adapter. Emphasis is placed on fulfillment of the speed and sensitivity requirements. The best separation is achieved using 32 mM ammonium formate/acid formic buffer at pH 3.1, with a working voltage of 25 kV. The MS detection of the five pesticides was performed in negative ionization mode. Full-scan spectra with base peaks corresponding to [M-H]- were obtained except for acifluorfen, which gives [M-H-CO2]- as most abundant ion. Compared with the conventional EC-UV, the limits of detection were lower for acifluorfen, haloxyfop, ioxynil, and picloram, by a factor of 20, 20, 50, and 2, respectively. Extraction involved fruit sample homogenization with an acetone-water solution (5:1), filtration, and acetone evaporation prior to fiber extraction. SPME conditions such as time, pH, ion strength, stationary phase of the fiber, sample matrix, and desorption solvents were examined. The recovery of the analytes ranged from 7 to 94%, and the relative standard deviation was between 3 and, 13%. The method was found to be linear between 0.02 and 500 mg kg(-1) with correlation coefficients ranging from 0.992 to 0.997. The limits of quantification were from 0.02 to 5 mg kg(-1). The optimized method was successfully applied to the analysis of acid pesticides in fruit samples.
