Single‐step multiresidue determination of ten multiclass veterinary drugs in pork,milk, and eggs using liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry

A multiclass, multiresidue determination method is reported for the detection of ten veterinary drugs, including scopolamine, metoclopramide, acriflavine, berberine, tripelennamine, diphenhydramine, acrinol, triamcinolone, loperamide, and roxithromycin in pork, milk, and eggs. The method involves a simple extraction using 0.1% formic acid in acetonitrile, followed by defatting with n‐hexane, centrifugation, and filtration prior to liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometric analysis. As ion suppression and enhancement effects are reported, matrix‐matched calibrations are used for quantification, with determination coefficients ≥0.9765. For the majority of the tested analytes, the intra‐ and interday accuracy (expressed as recovery %) range from 70.6 to 94.6% and from 70.1 to 93.3%, respectively, and the precision (expressed as relative standard deviation) ranges from 0.5 to 19.8% and from 2.8 to 18.4% in all matrices. The limits of quantification range between 0.5 and 10 ng/g. The validated tandem mass spectrometry method is successfully applied to market samples; the target analytes are not detected in any of the tested samples. In terms of accuracy, no extract cleanup is deemed necessary. The developed method is feasible for the simultaneous detection of the tested analytes in pork, milk, and eggs.     

Comparison of extraction solvents and sorbents in the quick,easy, cheap,effective, rugged,and safe method for the determination of pesticide multiresidue in fruits by ultra high performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry

An improved analytical method was developed for the simultaneous quantification of several plant growth regulators and fungicides (carbendazim, pyrimethanil, metalaxyl, triadimefon, paclobutrazol, thiophanate, prochloraz, dimethomorph, difenoconazole, (4‐chlorophenoxy)‐acetic acid, (2,4‐dichlorophenoxy)‐acetic acid, thiadiazuron, forchlorfenuron and gibberellins) in fruits followed by ultra high performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry. Samples were extracted and purified using a modified QuEChERS method. Different extraction solvents and sorbents in the QuEChERS method were compared. Optimum results were followed by the addition of 1% acetic acid in acetonitrile; C₁₈ sorbent was added due to the acidic nature of several pesticides. The recoveries of the pesticides were in the range 73.7–118.4%, with relative standard deviations lower than 16.63%. Limits of detection ranged from 0.1–1.0 μg/kg. The method presented here is simple, rapid, sensitive and can be applied to large‐scale monitoring programs to screen the presences of pesticides in fruits.

High temperature-high efficiency liquid chromatography using sub-2 μm coupled columns for the analysis of selected non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and veterinary antibiotics in environmental samples

A high efficiency HPLC method was developed by coupling three sub-2 μm columns in series and operating them at high temperature for the separation of selected non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and veterinary antibiotics in environmental samples. The separation was performed at 80 °C to reduce the solvent viscosity, thus reducing the column backpressure. The chromatographic performance of high temperature-extended column length HPLC method was used to determine the most widely used non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and veterinary antibiotics such as sulphonamides in wastewater samples. The method could simultaneously determine 24 pharmaceuticals in short analysis time with high efficiency. The method involved pre-concentration and clean-up by solid phase extraction (SPE) using Oasis HLB extraction cartridges. It was validated based on linearity, precision, detection and quantification limits, selectivity and accuracy. Good recoveries were obtained for all analytes ranging from 72.7% to 98.2% with standard deviations not higher than 6%, except for acetaminophen and acetyl salicylic acid, for which low recovery was obtained. The detection limits of the studied pharmaceuticals ranged from 2 to 16 μg L⁻¹, while limits of quantification were in the range from 7 to 54 μg L⁻¹ with UV detection.

Simultaneous Determination of Buprenorphine, Norbuprenorphine and Naloxone in Human Plasma by LC-MS-MS

A novel sensitive and selective liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS-MS) method simultaneously determined buprenorphine (BUP) and its active metabolite, norbuprenorphine (NBUP), and a coformulant, naloxone was developed, validated and applied successfully in humans. Buprenorphine-d ₄ and norbuprenorphine-d ₃ were used as the internal standard. The analysis was performed on a silica column, and the mobile phase was isocratic and composed of acetonitrile:2 mM ammonium formate in H2O (82:18, v/v). Mass spectrometry employed multiple reaction monitoring modes with transitions of m/z 468.1?C55.2 for BUP, 414.2?C101.2 for NBUP, 328.3?C310.3 for naloxone, 472.1?C59.2 for buprenorphine-d ₄ and 417.2?C101.2 for norbuprenorphine-d ₃. Lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) of the analytical method was 0.05 ng mL^?1 for BUP, 0.1 ng mL^?1 for NBUP and 0.025 ng mL^?1 for naloxone, respectively. The standard calibration curves of BUP, NBUP and naloxone were linear over the concentration range of 0.05?C20 ng mL^?1, 0.1?C20 ng mL^?1 and 0.025?C20 ng mL^?1, respectively. The precisions (RSD) and accuracies (RE) of LLOQ and other QC samples were in acceptable range, with RSD < 20% and RE ± 20% for LLOQ and RSD < 15% and RE within ±15% for QC samples. The method was accurate, precise and specific, and was applied to the pharmacokinetic study of buprenorphine in healthy volunteers.     

Rapid quantification of tilidine,nortilidine, and bisnortilidine in urine by automated online SPE-LC-MS/MS

The opioid tilidine is a prodrug which is hepatically metabolized to active nortilidine and bisnortilidine. Due to the increasing abuse of tilidine by drug users and the lack of a specific immunoassay, we developed an analytical method for the quantification of tilidine, nortilidine, and bisnortilidine in urine suitable for screening. In a following step, this method was used to establish data on excretion kinetics of the substances in order to evaluate the time window of detection after a single oral dose of tilidine/naloxone and also was applied to authentic urine samples from correctional facilities. Urine samples were mixed with internal standard solution and extracted on a weak cation exchanger at pH 6 using a Symbiosis Pico system. The chromatographic separation was achieved within a 3.5-min run time on a Phenylhexyl column (50 × 2.0 mm, 5 μm) via gradient elution (methanol and 0.2% formic acid) at a flow rate of 0.50 mL/min. The ESI-MS/MS was performed on a QTrap 3,200 in positive multiple reaction monitoring mode using two mass transitions per analyte. Validating the method resulted in a lower limit of quantification of 1.0 μg/L followed by a linear calibration range to 100 μg/L for each analyte (r ² > 0.99). The analytical method allowed the detection of a single dose of a commercially available tilidine solution up to 7 days after administration. Using this highly sensitive method, 55 of 3,665 urine samples were tested positive.
