Abstract

A chromatographic method involving a single run was validated for the quantification of clanobutin, dichlorvos, and naftazone in products of animal origin. Pork, beef, chicken, milk, and egg samples were extracted with a solution of 0.1% formic acid in acetonitrile, defatted with n-hexane, centrifuged, and filtered prior to analysis using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-/MS/MS). The analytes were separated on a C18 column using a solution of 0.1% formic acid and 10 mM ammonium formate (A) and acetonitrile (B) as the mobile phase. A good linearity over 5-50 ng/g concentration range was obtained with coefficients of determination (R2) ≥ 0.9807. The intra- and interday accuracy (recovery %) calculated from 3 fortification levels (5, 10, and 20 ng/g) were 73.2-108.1% and 71.4-109.8%, and the precisions (expressed relative standard deviations (RSDs)) were 0.9-12.9% and 1.8-10.6%, respectively, for the 3 tested analytes in animal originated foods. The limits of quantification (LOQs) ranged between 0.1 and 1 ng/g, thus enabling the quantification of residual levels below the uniform maximum residue limit (MRL) of 0.01 mg/kg set for compounds having no MRL. The designated methodology was successfully applied to monit...Continue Reading
