1 Scope
This European Standard stipulates a method for the analysis of pesticide residues
in foods of plant origin, such as fruits (including dried fruits), vegetables (including
dried vegetables), cereals and many processed products thereof by using GC, GC-MS(/MS),
and/or LC-MS(/MS). The method has been collaboratively studied on a large number of
commodity/pesticide combinations. Precision data are summarized in CEN/TR 17063. Guidelines for calibration are outlined in CEN/TS 17061.
