“UV-Driven Self-Cleaning” Magnetic Molecularly Imprinted Absorbents Coupled with LTP-MS and LC-TQ-MS for Rapid High-Throughput Screening and Quantification of Organophosphorus Pesticides in Agro-products

Organophosphorus magnetic molecularly imprinted polymers (OMMIPs) with high adsorption capacities (13.5–83.8 mg g–1) and good applicability were developed for efficient extraction and pre-concentration of multiple organophosphorus pesticides (OPPs) from foodstuffs. The OMMIP-based sample pretreatment coupled with low-temperature plasma ambient ionization mass spectrometry achieved rapid screening for 90 kinds of pesticides at default maximum residue limits of National Standard (GB 2763-2021) in nine types of agro-products. The OMMIP-based liquid chromatography coupled with triple quadrupole mass spectroscopy assay demonstrated rapid magneto-actuated isolation, efficient removal of matrix interference, and reduced signal suppression, resulting in a short detection time (30 min), compliant recoveries (60.1–127.5%), low detection limits (0.0001–0.073 μg g–1), and simultaneous quantification of multi-pesticides. The yolk–shell-structured OMMIPs (Fe3O4@mTiO2@MIPs) demonstrated additional benefits of excellent ultraviolet light-driven catalytic degradation activity toward OPPs, making them eco-friendly for self-cleaning regeneration and reducing laboratory pesticide discharge. This work highlights the potential of OMMIPs for high-throughput and in situ pesticide monitoring in modern large-scale agricultural markets.
