In an extraction efficiency testing, the plant residues method has also demonstrated the ability to extract aged clothianidin residue. Although the plant residues LCMS/MS method is highly suitable for enforcement method, an L C-Ultraviolet (UV) method has also been developed which is suitable for enforcement monitoring purposes in all relevant matrices.
