Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of pesticide physicochemical property determination, in particular to a method for determining the physicochemical property of a pesticide. Background Art
[0002] As food safety supervision continues to increase, accurately understanding the physical and chemical properties of pesticides in the environment and agricultural products has become an important part of daily laboratory work; traditional measurement processes often start with the rapid sample QuEChERS pretreatment of agricultural products, and then complete multi-residue analysis through gas chromatography-mass spectrometry GC-MS / MS or liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry LC-MS / MS; this combination has been used in the simultaneous determination of multiple pesticides because of its efficiency and sensitivity, but in actual operation, the reliability of the test results depends to a large extent on the accuracy of the calibration curve, while the calibration curve itself is deeply affected by multiple factors such as matrix effect, pretreatment details, and instrument status.
[0003] A common practice is to use matrix-matched calibration, adding standard substances to the same matrix as the sample to establish a standard curve to offset background interference; however, there are slight differences in the sample sources, purification reagent package batches and even room temperature and humidity used by different laboratories, resulting in different peak area responses at the same concentration; although the internal standard method can partially compensate for extraction losses, it cannot correct the matrix response differences of all targets at the same time; although the standard addition method can reduce matrix interference, it increases the number of operation steps and time consumption.
[0004] When multiple laboratories test the same sample, they will find that although the operating procedures are consistent, there will be obvious deviations in the slope and intercept of the calibration curve. Such deviations not only make it difficult to directly compare the quantitative results between different laboratories, but also make it difficult for laboratories to conduct proficiency testing and establish shared databases. What's more, when there is a need to quickly expand to new matrices or new instrument platforms, the calibration model must be re-established almost every time, resulting in waste of resources and inefficiency.
[0005] In short, while the current methods for determining the physicochemical properties of pesticides meet the needs of high sensitivity and multi-residue analysis, they are stuck in the dilemma of calibration dependence and independence; the lack of portability of calibration curves not only increases the cost of internal quality control in laboratories, but also hinders the consistency and comparability of data across regions and platforms, bringing hidden dangers to regulatory decisions and risk assessments. How to build a calibration model that can be seamlessly transferred between different laboratories, different matrices, and different instruments while maintaining accuracy has become a core problem that needs to be solved urgently.

[0073] The microdroplet generator adopts a piezoelectric-driven micro ink droplet ejection unit, and its main structure consists of three parts: a nozzle array plate, a piezoelectric actuator, and a liquid supply module.
[0074] The nozzle array plate is a silicon-based substrate, and circular micropores with a single-hole aperture of 30 μm are prepared by SU-8 lithography. A microfluid chamber with a diameter of 150 μm and a length of 200 μm is connected to the rear end of each nozzle; the liquid channel is formed by soft etching of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), and the overall height is 50 μm; the piezoelectric actuator selects a PZT ceramic sheet with a thickness of 150 μm and an area of 3 × 3 mm 2 , and single-shot ejection is achieved by driving with a 50 V peak value and a 50 μs pulse. Each pulse can release ≈100 pL droplets, and CV < 5%.
[0075] The driving method adopts a bipolar pulse controller, and the output pulse frequency is adjustable from 0 to 10 kHz; the working process of the nozzle is as follows: the pulse causes the piezoelectric sheet to produce an instantaneous depression, and the liquid is squeezed through the micropores to form droplets; then the piezoelectric sheet resets and generates negative pressure to ensure that there is no residual liquid hanging on the wall; the outer surface of the nozzle is treated with a fluorosilane hydrophobic coating, and the static contact angle > 110° to prevent liquid backflow.

[0077] The connection with the chip flow channel adopts a plug-and-play liquid interface: the nozzle array plate is tightly attached to the Cyclic Olefin Copolymer (COC) substrate through a threaded fixing seat, and the O-ring fluororubber seal can withstand a pressure ≤ 15 psi to prevent leakage; the nozzle orifice is aligned to the bottom of the chip main flow channel, and the flow channel cross-sectional area is 300 × 50 μm 2 , forming an integrated fluid network with the nozzle microfluidic chamber; the chip can be replaced without disassembling the nozzle module; at the same time, it supports the rapid access of a standard 360 μm OD PEEK hose to the sample input port.
[0078] Step S3, continuously transport the mixed solution generated in step S2 to the gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry GC-MS / MS detection system through the microfluidic interface, and synchronously collect the peak area data of the target pesticide and the internal standard in the dynamic multiple reaction monitoring dMRM mode;

[0085] In step S3, during the detection stage, the MS / MS system monitors the parent-daughter ion conversion reaction of each target in the dynamic multiple reaction monitoring (dMRM) mode. The total time of a single cycle of monitoring is expressed as:
[0086]
[0087] Among them, t cycle represents the total time of a single cycle of MS / MS monitoring, n represents the total number of dynamic monitoring reactions, d j represents the residence time of the j-th monitoring reaction, and t delay represents the reaction conversion delay time;
[0088] In step S3, the calculation formula for the peak area of each substance is: A i = k i c i V eff η i Among them, A i represents the peak area of the i-th substance, k i represents the instrument response factor, c i represents the concentration of the i-th substance in the mixed solution, and η i represents the transmission coupling efficiency, reflecting the overall efficiency of substance transmission from the microfluidic interface to the detection system;
[0089] The calculation formula for the peak area ratio of the target pesticide to the internal standard obtained by real-time acquisition is: R = A1 / A2. Among them, R represents the peak area ratio of the target pesticide to the internal standard, A1 represents the peak area of the target pesticide, and A2 represents the peak area of the internal standard;
[0090] Specifically, the process of continuously transporting the sample to the GC-MS / MS system and real-time collecting the peak area data of the target pesticide and the internal standard in the dynamic multiple reaction monitoring mode is shown here; by establishing a mathematical model of volume injection, splitting, and dynamic monitoring, it is possible to ensure the accuracy of the sample entering the chromatographic column and the synchronization of MS / MS detection under continuous injection conditions;
[0091] Step S4, according to the peak area ratio, automatically generate and update the matrix-matched calibration curve using the Bayesian regression algorithm;
[0092] In step S4, the matrix-matched calibration curve includes linear fitting coefficients and uncertainty evaluation parameters;
[0093] In step S4, construct the matrix-matched calibration curve through the Bayesian regression algorithm;
[0094] The relationship between the peak area ratio and the concentration of the target pesticide is described by a linear model, and the mathematical model is expressed as:
[0095] R = β0 + β1c + ∈,
[0096] where R represents the peak area ratio, β0 represents the intercept, β1 represents the slope, c represents the concentration of the target pesticide in the calibration sample, and ∈ represents an error term that follows a normal distribution;
[0097] A prior distribution is selected to constrain the parameters, and it is assumed that the parameter vector follows a multivariate normal distribution:
[0098]
[0099] where, represents the linear model parameters, μ0 represents the prior mean vector, and Σ0 represents the prior covariance matrix;
[0100] In step S4, the steps of constructing a matrix-matched calibration curve by the Bayesian regression algorithm further include:
[0101] Under the condition of the observed data , each row of the design matrix X is constructed as x i = (1, c i ), and let Based on the conjugacy of the likelihood function and the prior distribution, the posterior update formula is:
[0102] where Σ n represents the posterior covariance matrix, μ n represents the posterior mean vector, σ 2 represents the variance of the error term, X represents the design matrix, X T represents the transpose of X, and R represents the observed peak area ratio vector;
[0103] To evaluate the uncertainty of the calibration curve, variance prediction is performed, and the prediction variance formula is:
[0104]
[0105] where, represents the prediction variance at the new concentration c, represents the eigenvector corresponding to the new concentration, and Σ n represents the posterior covariance matrix;

[0107] Specifically, a calibration curve is established here through the Bayesian regression method. The prior information is used to provide initial constraints for the model parameters, and the posterior distribution of the parameters is continuously updated through the observed data to achieve automatic model update;
[0108] The linear model characterizes the quantitative relationship between the peak area ratio and the concentration. The prior distribution ensures the rationality of the parameters when the data is insufficient. The posterior update integrates the prior knowledge and the observed evidence, so as to obtain accurate calibration parameters. The calculation of the prediction variance not only reflects the adaptability of the model to new data, but also provides a quantitative basis for uncertainty evaluation;
[0109] Step S5: Encrypt and upload the local calibration curve parameters and the detection residuals to the central server; The central server generates a global calibration model by fusing the calibration parameters from different laboratories based on the federated learning framework;

[0113] where, E l represents the encrypted data uploaded by laboratory l, ε represents the encryption function, θ l represents the local calibration curve parameters, ε l represents the detection residuals, and k e represents the encryption key;
[0114] In step S5, the central server receives the encrypted data from each laboratory through a secure transmission channel, and completes the decryption process in a trusted execution environment to obtain the original local parameters. Subsequently, the central server uses the federated average algorithm FedAvg to aggregate the data of each laboratory to generate a global calibration model. The aggregation formula is:

[0116] where, θ g represents the global calibration model parameters, w i represents the weight of laboratory i, and n i$n_i$ represents the number of samples in laboratory $i$, and $N$ represents the total number of laboratories participating in federated learning;
[0117] The global estimate of the detection residual is calculated by weighted average and expressed as:
[0118] where $\epsilon$ g represents the global detection residual;
[0119] After generating the global model, the central server distributes the global calibration model to each laboratory through a secure encrypted transmission channel;
[0120] Specifically, each laboratory protects the data privacy of the calibration parameters and detection residuals through local encryption technology, and then uploads the encrypted data to the central server using a secure transmission protocol. After the central server decrypts the data securely, it synthesizes the data of each laboratory through the federated averaging algorithm to form a global calibration model;
[0121] This aggregation process uses the number of samples in each laboratory as weights to achieve reasonable data fusion, and at the same time, the detection residuals are also globally evaluated using weighted average;
[0122] Step S6, the global calibration model is regularly distributed to each laboratory to replace or optimize the local Bayesian regression model, so as to achieve the transferability of the calibration model across laboratories, instruments, and matrices;
[0123] The core of the present invention lies in using a droplet generator to complete the automatic update of the calibration curve and the fusion of the federated model after real-time internal standard addition.
