A simple and sensitive high performance liquid chromatographic（HPLC） method was developed for the simultaneous determination of 9 nicotinoid insecticide residues,including dinotefuran，nitenpyram，flonicamid，thiamethoxam，imidacloprid,clothianidin，imidaclothiz，acetamiprid and thiacloprid,in sulphur containing vegetables samples. The extract efficiencies of several solvent and the cleanup capacities of different SPE cartridges were compared. The vegetables were extracted with acetonitrile and cleaned up on an Envi-Carb/PSA cartridge. The nicotinoid insecticides were eluted with acetonitrile and detected with UV detector. The calibration curves showed good linearities in the range of 002-10 mg/L with correlative coefficient more than 0999. The limits of quantitation（LOQ） were 002 mg/kg for all 9 pesticide except for thiacloprid with LOQ of 005 mg/kg. The recoveries of 9 pesticides from vegetable sample spiked at three concentration levels of 002 mg/kg,005 mg/kg and 05 mg/kg ranged from 67% to 110% with RSDs less than 186%. The established method was simple,sensitive and accurate,and was suitable for the routine detection of nicotinoid pesticides residues in vegetables.
