Fourteen organochlorine pesticide residues in fatty foods were determined using a simple and rapid procedure based on solid-phase extraction (SPE) clean-up cartridges with octadecyl (C18)-bonded porous silica, a tandem C18 and Florisil column, Alumina-N and Florisil. A Florisil cartridge eluted with 12 ml petroleum ether-ethyl ether (95 + 5) was the most efficient clean-up procedure capable of eliminating the matrix interference and satisfying the agreed acceptable recovery for the large numbers of organochlorine pesticides in nine kinds of foods having different fat contents. Average recoveries of organochlorine pesticides in shellfish, fish and meats ranged from 77 to 105%, 84 to 98% and 85 to 107%, respectively. In addition, analysis of a certified Standard Reference Material (SRM 1945) verified the satisfactory performance of Florisil clean-up cartridge. This SPE method not only yielded comparable results for nonfatty foods, but also provided a reliable separation and quantification of organochlorine pesticides for analyzing a large number of foods with a wide range of fat content.
