Matrix solid phase dispersion isolation and liquid chromatographic determination of sulfadimethoxine in catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) muscle tissue.

A method for the isolation and liquid chromatographic determination of sulfadimethoxine in catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) muscle tissue is presented. Blank control and sulfadimethoxine-fortified fish muscle tissue samples (0.5 g) were blended with octadecyisilyl (C18, 40 micrograms, 18% load, endcapped) derivatized silica packing material. A column made from the C18/fish tissue blend was first washed with hexane (8 mL), following which the sulfadimethoxine was eluted with dichloromethane (8 mL). The eluant contained sulfadimethoxine analyte that was free from interfering compounds when analyzed by liquid chromatography with UV detection (photodiode array, 270 nm). Standard curves for sulfadimethoxine isolated from fortified samples were linear (0.999 +/- 0.001) with an average relative percentage recovery of 101.1 +/- 4.2% for the concentration range (50, 100, 200, 400, 800, and 1600 ng/g) examined using sulfamethoxazole as the internal standard. The interassay variability was 10.7 +/- 8.2% with an intra-assay variability of 2.2%.

Methodology for the analysis of benzimidazole anthelmintics as drug residues in animal tissues.

Methodology for the analysis of 8 benzimidazoles as residues in bovine liver is reported. Spiked tissues were extracted by homogenization in saline and ammonium hydroxide and blending with diatomaceous earth. This matrix was packed into a column, and the benzimidazoles were eluted with ethyl acetate. After the sample was further purified, benzimidazoles were separated and quantitated by liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection (290 nm). Liver tissue samples obtained from cattle which had undergone a drug depletion study of fenbendazole administered per os were analyzed using these methods. The results of these analyses and the application of this approach to multiresidue analysis of drugs in animal tissues are discussed.

Multiresidue method for isolation and liquid chromatographic determination of seven benzimidazole anthelmintics in milk.

A multiresidue method for the isolation and liquid chromatographic determination of 7 benzimidazole anthelmintics (thiabendazole, oxfendazole, para-hydroxyfenbendazole, fenbendazole sulfone, mebendazole, albendazole, and fenbendazole) in milk is presented. Blank or benzimidazole-spiked milk samples (0.5 mL) were blended with octadecylsilyl (C-18, 18% load, end-capped) derivatized silica packing material. A column made from the C-18/milk matrix was first washed with hexane (8 mL), and then the benzimidazoles were eluted with methylene chloride-ethyl acetate (1 + 2, v/v; 8 mL). The eluate contained benzimidazole analytes which were free from interfering compounds as determined by UV detection (photodiode array, 290 nm). Correlation coefficients of standard curves for individual benzimidazoles isolated from spiked samples were linear (0.989 +/- 0.003 to 0.998 +/- 0.001) with recoveries ranging from 70 +/- 9% to 107 +/- 2% for the concentration range (62.5-2000 ng/mL) examined. The inter-assay variabilities ranged from 4 +/- 1% to 9 +/- 7% with intra-assay variabilities of 3-6%.

Isolation and gas chromatographic determination of chlorsulfuron in milk.

A method for the isolation and gas chromatographic determination of chlorsulfuron in milk is presented. Blank or chlorsulfuron-spiked milk samples were blended into C-18 (octadecylsilyl derivatized silica, ODS) packing material. A column made from the C-18/milk matrix was washed with hexane after which chlorsulfuron was eluted with dichloromethane (DCM). The DCM eluate contained chlorsulfuron which was free from interfering co-extractants when analyzed by gas chromatography utilizing a nitrogen/phosphorus detector. Chlorsulfuron was found to undergo a thermally induced decomposition to give 2-amino-4-methoxy-6-methyl-1,3,5-triazine, which was detected and quantitated by this method. Standard curves for these analyses were linear (r = 0.992 +/- 0.004, n = 5), with an average percentage recovery of 91.6 +/- 10.8%, over the concentration range examined (62.5-2000 ng/mL). The inter- and intra-assay variabilities were 11.6 +/- 7.5% and 6.2%, respectively.
