The highly sensitive APGC ionization method with nitrogen as a carrier gas was applied to the analysis of pesticide residues in food. The high sensitivity made it possible to avoid the concentration step of sample preparation, and also reduced the sample load to the instrument. Furthermore, this method provided better results in accuracy and trueness for a larger number of compounds than the conventional method.
