Abstract: The preparation method of new soil candidate certified reference materials (CRM) for the analysis of organochlorine pesticides in soils has been developed. The soil sample was dried, ground, homogenized and packed. After Soxhlet extraction and Florisil purification, the organochlorine pesticides in soil candidate were further determined using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The results showed that the soil collected from Shenyang was an ideal soil candidate material for organochlorine pesticide analysis. This method established a foundation for the development of soil reference materials for the analysis of organochlorine pesticides.

Key words: organochlorine pesticides, reference material, soil , gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS)
