  abstract = {{I}ntroduction. {C}hlordecone ({OLD}), an organochlorine formerly used to control the banana black weevil, is strongly adsorbed on soils, particularly on andosols. {A} simplified analytical procedure for the quantitative determination of chlordecone residues in water and micro-samples of soil and plants was compared with a standard method. {M}aterials and methods. {T}he procedure combines a simplified sampling protocol and a 10-min solid phase microextraction ({SPME}), followed by gas chromatographic separation ({GC}) and mass spectrometric ({MS} and {MS}/{MS}) identification. {Q}uantitation of {OLD} used a standard addition method with zero extrapolation. {F}irst, seventy samples were analysed using the proposed method and the standard method based on hot solvent extraction. {S}econd, fifteen soil samples were analysed with two {SPME} methods followed by {GC}-{MS} but using {OLD} labelled with 013 as an internal standard or the proposed method. {R}esults and discussion. {T}he detection ({LOD}) and quantitation ({LOQ}) limits of our {SPME} extraction procedure were determined for {GC}-{MS} and {GC}-{MS}/{MS} with water, plant (pineapple roots) and soil samples: in water for {MS}/{MS}, {LODMS}/{MS}-water = 0.5 ng.{L}-1, {LOQ}({MS}/{MS}-water) = 2.0 ng.{L}-1; in andosol for {MS}/{MS}, {LODMS}/{MS}-soil = 15.0 ng.kg(-1) dw, {LOQ}({MS}/{MS}-soil) = 80.0 ng.kg(-1). {D}ata from the seventy contaminated soils obtained with the proposed method and the standard method showed a correlation coefficient of r = 0.86. {D}ata obtained by the two {SPME}/{GC}-{MS} quantitation procedures showed a correlation of r = 0.8073. {C}onclusion. {T}he method proposes a simplified sample preparation and extraction of {OLD} in water, plant and soil samples, with no solvent manipulation and which is not time-consuming. {T}he {LOD} and {LOQ} were similar to those obtained with other currently used methods. {T}he method is reliable and accurate and may be considered as a good tool for research purposes.},
