Polar pesticides, aminoalcohols, QACs, arsenic and bromide in rice

P2415-RT covers polar pesticides, aminoalcohols, QACs, bromide and arsenic, which are relevant for rice and products thereof.

The aim of the ring test is

the correct identification of the quaternary
ammonium compounds
(a selection of the mentioned QACs is spiked).
the correct quantification with respect to the
comparability criterion (z-score ≤ |2|),
the correct quantification with respect to the
trueness criterion (70-120 % recovery of the spiked level, as far as applicable).

Reporting limits of 0.01 mg/kg are required for all parameters except bromide and arsenic.
