Abstract A liquid chromatographic (LC) method was developed for the simultaneous determination of nitro-furazone (NFZ), nitrofurantoin (NFT), and furazolidone (FZD) in catfish muscle tissue. The drugs were extracted from the tissue with acetonitrile, and the lipids were removed from the extract with hexane. The acetonitrile extract was evaporated by rotary evaporation, and the resultant drug residues were dissolved with LC mobile phase. The mixture was sonicated, centrifuged, and filtered. The drugs were determined by using LC with a Cie reversed-phase (ODS Hypersil) column, a mobile phase of acetonitrile–1 % aqueous acetic acid (25 + 75), and a photodiode array ultraviolet detector at 375 nm. NFZ, NFT, and FZD were each determined in catfish tissue at 5 fortification levels (80, 40, 20,10, and 5 ng drug/g tissue). Average recoveries of each of the 3 drugs at each level ranged from 70.7 to 101.5%, and relative standard deviations ranged from 2.2 to 18.6%. The limit of detection of each drug was approximately 1 ng drug/g tissue, and the limit of quantitation was 5 ng drug/g tissue. In the second part of the study, the method was used to determine nitrofuran residues incurred in catfish tissue. Live channel catfish were intravascularly dosed (10 mg/kg body wt) with NFZ to generate drug-incurred fish muscle tissue. Incurred NFZ levels exceeded 400 ng drug/g tissue at 2 h after dosing but decreased rapidly to approximately 1 ng drug/g tissue by 8 h after dosing, as determined by this method.

Abstract A liquid chromatographic (LC) method was developed for the simultaneous determination of nitrofurazone (NFZ) and furazolidone (FZD) in shrimp muscle tissue. The drugs are extracted from the tissue with acetonitrile, and the lipids and lipophilic pigments are removed from the extract with hexane. The remaining acetonitrile extract is evaporated by rotary evaporation, and the resultant residues are dissolved with LC-grade water, applied to a preconditioned C18 solid-phase extraction column, and eluted with acetonitrile. The acetonitrile eluant is then dried under nitrogen, and the resultant drug residues are dissolved with mobile phase and filtered. The drugs are determined by LC by using a C18 reversed-phase (octyldecylsilyl Hypersil) column, a mobile phase of acetonitrile- 1% aqueous acetic acid (25 + 75, v/v), and a photodiode array UV detector at 375 nm. NFZ and FZD were determined in shrimp tissue at each of 5 spiking levels (64,32,16, 8, and 4 ng drug/g tissue). Absolute recoveries ranged from 70.6 to 78.4%, and relative standard deviations ranged from 4.0 to 13.6%. The limit of detection of pure standard of each drug was approximately the equivalent of 1 ng drug/g tissue, and the limit of determination in a sample was 4 ng drug/g tissue.

A method for simultaneous determination of residuals of four herbicides and pesticides, simazine, carboxin, diflubenzuron and rotenone, in Chinese green tea was developed. In the proposed method, the tea powder was placed in a centrifuge tube with a plug, extracted in saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution and acetonitrile, agitated using vortex oscillator, and then centrifuged 5 min at 4000 rpm. The supernatant solution was purified by primary secondary amine (PSA) sorbent, C18 power, and graphitized carbon black powder, respectively. Then the purified extracts were dissolved with acetonitrile:0.1% formic acid aqueous solution (40:60, V/V) and agitated, filtered using a syringe with 0.22 μm nylon filter prior to UPLC-MS/MS analysis. The UPLC analysis was performed on an ACQUITY UPLC® HSS T3 column (2.1 mm×100 mm, 1.8 µm), using acetonitrile-0.1% formic acid as mobile phase with the flow rate as 0.3 mL•min-1. Injection volume was 10 µL. Positive ionization mode was applied, and the ions were monitored in the multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode with curtain gas 0.069 MPa, collision gas 0.052 MPa, ESI ion spray voltage 5000 V, temperature 550 °C, nebulizer gas 0.24 MPa, and turbo gas 0.28 MPa. The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantitation (LOQ) of the proposed method are 1 μg•kg-1and 5 μg•kg-1, respectively. The average recoveries of the four pesticides at 10, 20, and 50 µg•kg-1spiking levels range from 77.4% to 95.3%.

Abstract An analytical procedure was developed for the detection and quantitation of diazepam in cream biscuits, which were used to commit crime. The method involves the extraction of diazepam with ethanol at room temperature, and the extract is filtered, evaporated to dryness, and redissolved in the mobile phase, methanol–acetonitrile–tetrahydrofuran–water (15 + 55 + 4 + 26, v/v). The separation is achieved on a C18 reversed-phase column with the mobile phase and diode array detection (λmax) at 230 nm. Medazepam is used as the internal standard is for quantification. The calibration plot for the determination of diazepam is based on linear regression analysis (y = 0.6687x + 0.0372; r2 = 0.995). The limit of detection for diazepam in the biscuit samples was estimated as 600 ng/mL. The limit of quantitation for diazepam was estimated as 1.75 μg/mL. The diazepam detected per piece of biscuit was found to be in the range of 0.27–0.45 mg. Pure diazepam was added to biscuit samples at 3 levels (100 and 500 μg/g, and 1 mg/g), and the recoveries were found to be 95%. The mean retention time of diazepam was 2.7 min and that of medazepam (IS) was 4 min. The relative standard deviations of the diazepam level in the biscuit samples were estimated to be 0.4% for retention time and 1.02% for peak area in intraday analysis, whereas the corresponding values were and 0.61 and 2.34% in interday analysis. The method is rapid and reliable for qualitative and quantitative analysis of cream biscuits laced with diazepam, and it can be used by law enforcement laboratories for routine analysis.

Abstract A sensitive and selective high-performance liquid chromatographic method has been developed for the determination of tianeptine (Tia) in tablets. The method is based on derivatization of Tia with 4-chloro-7-nitrobenzofurazan (NBD-Cl). A mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile10 mM orthophosphoric acid (pH 2.5; 77 + 23) was used at a flow rate of 1 mL/min on a C18 column. The Tia-NBD derivative was monitored using a fluorescence detector, with emission set at 520 nm and excitation at 458 nm. Gabapentin was selected as an internal standard. Linear calibration graphs were obtained in the concentration range of 45300 ng/mL. The lower limit of detection (LOD) was 10 ng/mL at a signal-to-noise ratio of 4. The lower limit of quantitation (LOQ) was 45 ng/mL. The relative standard values for intra- and interday precision were <0.46 and <0.57%, respectively. The recovery of the drug samples ranged between 98.89 and 99.85%. No chromatographic interference from the tablet excipients was found. The proposed method was validated in terms of precision, robustness, recovery, LOD, and LOQ. All the validation parameters were within the acceptance range. The proposed method was applied for the determination of Tia in commercially available tablets. The results were compared with those obtained by an ultraviolet spectrophotometric method using t- and F-tests.

Abstract A method was developed for the determination of 7B3 (12-propyloxyimino-1,15-pentadecanlactam), a novel macrolactam fungicide, by liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS) with positive electrospray ionization (ESI+). The method used a reversed-phase C18 column and acetonitrilewater (60 + 40, v/v) mobile phase. The quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged, and safe method was used for extraction of 7B3 from cotton plants, which involved the extraction of 10 g homogenized sample with 10 mL acetonitrile, followed by the addition of 4 g anhydrous MgSO4 and 1.0 g NaCl. After centrifugation, 1 mL of the buffered acetonitrile extract was transferred into a tube containing 50 mg primary secondary amine sorbent and 100 mg anhydrous MgSO4. After shaking and centrifugation, the final extract was transferred to an autosampler vial for concurrent analysis by LC/MS. The results of 7B3 determined by LC/MS in the selective ion monitoring mode were linear, and the matrix effect of the method was evaluated. The average recoveries of 7B3 fortified at different levels were within 84.1100.2, and the relative standard deviations were <7.5 for all samples analyzed. The method limit of detection and the limit of quantitation values were 0.03 and 0.1 mg/kg, respectively. The proposed method was successfully applied to determine 7B3 residues in practical samples. This method is sensitive, accurate, reliable, simple, and safe.
