Monodisperse silica spheres that comprised a rhombic-dodecahedral zeolitic imidazolate framework core-shell microsphere were applied in the sample pretreatment of navel orange. A rapid and efficient liquid chromatography with triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometry method was established for simultaneously quantifying four plant growth regulators, 6-benzylaminopurin, indole-3-acetic acid, indolepropionic acid, 3-indolebutyric acid, in navel oranges. A satisfactory result was obtained, i.e., the peak area of the four plant growth regulators against concentration was linear with good correlation coefficients of 0.99987-0.99991. Under optimized conditions, the limits of detection were 3.0-59.4 μg/L for the four plant growth regulators. This method was applied to the simultaneous analysis of the four plant growth regulators in commercial samples, and all the detections were confirmed by acquiring transitions for each pesticide in the samples.
