Dear Ishrat Jan,

it really depends on the physico-chemical properties of the pesticides you are interested in.

Check out this paper: Article Validated analytical methodology for the simultaneous determ...

They have developed the method for a wide range of pesticides. If they used some of the pesticides you are interested in or some structurally similar pesticides, you can perhaps take their sample preparation procedure as a starting point.
