A rapid and single multimethod was developed to determine substances of different pesticide classes in whole blood in the event of acute human intoxications, as required by EU Commission Directive 96/46. The method was validated by an in-house and an independent laboratory validation. Whole blood is hemolyzed and then deproteinized. After extraction of the supernatant, blood levels are determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The method, which can be performed within 120 min, covers 15 active substances (8 organophosphate pesticides, 2 carbamates, 3 pyrethroids, 1 azole, and 1 organochlorine pesticide) classified as toxic or very toxic. These compounds can be identified down to concentrations between 100 and 1000 ng/mL by comparison of their mass spectra to those in a commercial pesticide mass spectra library. Using the standard addition method, they can be quantitated down to concentrations between 30 and 200 ng/mL. These limits of quantitation are considered to be sufficient in comparison to respective LD50 values.
