    Determination of pesticide residual levels in strawberry (Fragaria) by near-infrared spectroscopy
    (Wiley, 2020) Yazici, Arzu; Tiryaki, Gulgun Yildiz; Ayvaz, Huseyin
    BACKGROUND In this study, an infrared-based prediction method was developed for easy, fast and non-destructive detection of pesticide residue levels measured by reference analysis in strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa Duch, cv. Albion) samples using near-infrared spectroscopy and demonstrating its potential alternative or complementary use instead of traditional pesticide determination methods. Strawberries of Albion variety, which were supplied directly from greenhouses, were used as the study material. A total of 60 batch sample groups, each consisting of eight strawberries, was formed, and each group was treated with a commercial pesticide at different concentrations (26.7% boscalid + 6.7% pyraclostrobin) and varying residual levels were obtained in strawberry batches. The strawberry samples with pesticide residuals were used both to collect near-infrared spectra and to determine reference pesticide levels, applying QuEChERS (quick, easy, cheap, rugged, safe) extraction, followed by liquid chromatographic-mass spectrometric analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION Partial least squares regression (PLSR) models were developed for boscalid and pyraclostrobin active substances. During model development, the samples were randomly divided into two groups as calibration (n = 48) and validation (n = 12) sets. A calibration model was developed for each active substance, and then the models were validated using cross-validation and external sets. Performance evaluation of the PLSR models was evaluated based on the residual predictive deviation (RPD) of each model. An RPD of 2.28 was obtained for boscalid, while it was 2.31 for pyraclostrobin. These results indicate that the developed models have reasonable predictive power. (c) 2019 Society of Chemical Industry
