Determination of glyphosate and aminomethylphosphonic acid residues in Finnish soils by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.

ABSTRACT: Glyphosate [N-(phosphonomethyl) glycine] (GLY) adsorbs strongly in Finnish soils. A new method for GLY and its main degradation product, aminomethylphosphonic acid (AMPA) residues in clay soils (Protovertic Luvisol) was developed and validated. A new method was necessary because the previous one required laborious cleaning pre-treatments, and its recovery was quite poor (<40%-70%). In the new method, the earlier method's extraction solvent, 0.1 M potassium hydroxide (KOH), was replaced by more effective 0.6 M KOH. The old post-column high-performance liquid chromatography and fluorescence (HPLC-FLD) method was replaced by the ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) method. Compounds were identified as their fluorenyl methyl chloroformate (FMOC) d
