Development of an HPLC multi-residue method for the determination of ten quinolones in bovine liver and porcine kidney according to the European Union Decision 2002/657/EC

A sensitive multi-residue analytical method was developed for the determination of ten quinolones: enoxacin, ofloxacin, norfloxacin, ciprofloxacin, danofloxacin, enrofloxacin, sarafloxacin, oxolinic acid, nalidixic acid, and flumequine in bovine liver and porcine kidney. A simple liquid extraction step followed by a solid phase extraction clean up procedure was applied for the extraction of quinolones from liver and kidney tissues. Recoveries of the extraction varied between 82 and 88% for bovine liver and 92 and 95% for porcine kidney. Separation was performed on an ODS-3 PerfectSil Target (250 x 4 mm) 5 microm analytical column at 25 degrees C. The mobile phase consisted of a mixture of TFA 0.1%-CH(3)CN-CH(3)OH, delivered at a flow rate of 1.2 mL/min according to a gradient program. Elution of quinolones and the internal standard (caffeine, 7.5 ng/microL) was complete within 27 min. Photodiode array detection was used for monitoring the eluants at 275 and 255 nm. The method was fully validated according to the European Union Decision 2002/657/EC, determining linearity, selectivity, decision limit, detection capability, accuracy, and precision. The LODs of the specific method of quinolone determination in bovine liver varied between 3 and 7 microg/kg and in porcine kidney between 3 and 4 microg/kg.     

Fast-GC/HRMS to quantify the EU priority PAH

For the analysis of the 15 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) classified as priority from the Scientific Committee on Food (SCF) and benzo[c]fluorene (BcL) assessed to be relevant by the Joint FAO/WHO Experts Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) in food, a sensitive analytical method is necessary. In the past, many methods were established for only the analysis of the 16 priority PAH recommended by the US Environmental Protection Agency (16 EPA-PAH) but not for the 15 SCF-PAH and BcL. Therefore, at the Max-Rubner-Institut, Federal Research Institute of Nutrition and Food in Kulmbach, Germany, an analytical method with a runtime of 72 min was developed. To shorten this runtime without a loss of separation, a Fast-GC/high resolution MS (HRMS) method with a runtime of only 25 min using a TR-50ms column (10 m x 0.1 mm x 0.1 microm) was created. The repeatability (n = 3) of spiked PAH concentrations in test-matrix tea ranged from 0.1 to 11%. The analytical parameters LOD (0.01-0.02 microg/kg) and LOQ (0.03-0.06 microg/kg) also in the test-matrix tea were determined. A good linearity for all PAH (R(2) >0.99) and averaged recoveries from 75 to 117% in the concentration range of 1-20 microg/kg were achieved.

Simultaneous quantification of chlorogenic acid and caffeic acid in rat plasma after an intravenous administration of mailuoning injection using liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry

A simple, rapid and sensitive method was developed for the simultaneous quantification of chlorogenic acid (CGA) and caffeic acid (CA) in rat plasma using a high-performance liquid chromatography system coupled to a negative ion electrospray mass spectrometric analysis. The plasma sample preparation was a simple deproteinization by the addition of two volumes of acetonitrile followed by centrifugation. The analytes and internal standard ferulic acid were separated on an Intersil C8-3 column (5 mm; 250 x 2.1 mm) with acetonitrile/0.05% triethylamine solution (70:30, v/v) as mobile phase at a flow rate of 0.2 mL/min with an operating temperature of 30 degrees C. Detection was performed on a quadrupole mass spectrometer equipped with an electrospray ionization (ESI) source operated in selected ion monitoring (SIM) mode. Negative ion ESI was used to form deprotonated molecules at m/z 353 for chlorogenic acid, m/z 179 for caffeic acid, and m/z 193 for the internal standard ferulic acid. Linear detection responses were obtained for CGA concentrations ranging from 0.005 to 2.0 microg/mL and for CA concentrations ranging from 0.010 to 2.0 microg/mL and the lower limits of quantitation (LLOQs) for CGA and CA were 0.005 and 0.01 microg/mL, respectively. The intra- and inter-day precisions (RSD%) were within 9.0% for both analytes. Deviation of the assay accuracies was within +/-10.0% for both analytes. Their average recoveries were greater than 88.0%. Both analytes were proved to be stable during all sample storage, preparation and analytic procedures. The method was successfully applied to the pharmacokinetic study of CGA and CA following an intravenous dose of 5 mL/kg mailuoning injection to rats.

Determination of tetracycline antibiotics in salmon muscle by liquid chromatography using post-column derivatization with fluorescence detection

A simple and accurate cleanup procedure using polymeric sorbent was developed for the determination of oxytetracycline (OTC) and tetracycline (TC) residues in salmon muscle. It was applied to the analysis of 20 salmon samples during a month period.

Multi-residue determination of seven quinolones antibiotics in gilthead seabream using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry

A sensitive and selective confirmatory analytical method for the multi-residue determination of seven quinolones (ciprofloxacin, enrofloxacin, sarafloxacin, danofloxacin, oxolinic acid, nalidixic acid and flumequine) in gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) was developed. The sample pre-treatment involves extraction with 0.1M NaOH and purification by solid-phase extraction (SPE) on Waters Oasis HLB cartridges followed by the determination of all compounds in a single LC-electrospray ionization MS/MS run. Separation was achieved on a Perfectsil ODS-2, 5mum, 250mmx4mm, analytical column (MZ Analysentechnik) by gradient elution using a mixture of 0.2% (v/v) formic acid, methanol and acetonitrile within 30min. Multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) was used for selective detection of each quinolone. Accuracy was evaluated through recovery studies at three different fortification levels. The mean recoveries are between 90 and 132% for the selected levels with RSD values lower than 20%. The method presents satisfactory results for linearity, precision and limits of quantification. The latter are much lower than the maximum residue limits (MRLs) established by the European Union for quinolones in fish tissues (6-8mug/kg).
