Determination of Avermectins Residues in Soybean, Bean, and Maize Using a QuEChERS-Based Method and Ultra-High-Performance Liquid Chromatography Coupled to Tandem Mass Spectrometry
Soybean, maize, and bean are crops of great economic importance, but in recent years have suffered with infestations of the caterpillar <i>Helicoverpa armigera</i>, with the main reason being the resistance of this pest to most pesticides. Avermectin emamectin benzoate was recently relea...

Other avermectins, like abamectin, doramectin, eprinomectin, and ivermectin are used in large scale because they potent acaricidal, anthelmintic, and insecticidal activities.
