A high‐throughput method is presented for the determination of rotenone in contaminated matrices. The procedure involves atmospheric pressure chemical ionization tandem mass spectrometry with a triple‐quadrupole instrument and the use as internal standard of a cycloadduct derivative of rotenone itself. The method was applied to the evaluation of the decay of rotenone in olives and olive oil at various times after exposure to the contaminant. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
