Abstract Avilamycin was extracted from feed with acetonitrile. Isolation of avilamycin factors from feed matrix interference was accomplishedby normal phase solid-phase extraction with silica as sorbent. Reversed-phase liquid chromatography was subsequently used to separate and quantitate the primary biologically activefactors A and B for determination of chemical potency. This method combines specificity for avilamycins A and B in poultry feeds with simple sample preparation that removes matrix interferences. Recoveries of factor A ranged from 93.29 to 97.26%, with precision (relative standard deviation) ranging from 1.1to 3.4%. Avilamycin factors in feed samples tested ranged from 4.45 to 17.82 μg/g for factor A and from 0.80 to 3.18 μg/g for factor B.

Abstract Modification of a previously published method for determination of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) produces very clean seafood extracts in less than half the time. After alkaline digestion of the seafood, PAHs were partitioned into 1,1,2- trichlorotrifluoroethane. The resulting extract was cleaned up by solid-phase extraction on alumina, silica, and C18 adsorbents and then analyzed by gradient reversed-phase liquid chromatography with programmable fluorescence detection. Average recoveries of 12 PAHs [acenaphthene, anthracene, fluoranthene, pyrene, benz(a)anthracene, chrysene, benzo(b)fluoranthene, benzo(k)- fluoranthene, benzo(a)pyrene, dibenz(a,h)anthracene, benzo(ghi)perylene, and indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene] from 5 different matrixes (mussels, oysters, clams, crabmeat, and salmon) spiked at low partsper- billion levels ranged from 76 to 94%. Estimated limits of quantitation ranged from 0.01 to 0.6 ppb PAHs in extracts that were free of matrix interferences. Results of analyses of a mussels standard reference material obtained from the National Institute of Standards and Technology were in good agreement with the certified values.

Abstract A method was developed for the determination of tylosin in feeds. The method involves extraction of tylosin with methanol, concentration under a stream of nitrogen, and cleanup using Phenomenex C18 solid-phase extraction cartridge. Analyte separation and quantitation were achieved by gradient reversed-phase liquid chromatography and UV absorbance at 285 nm with a reference wavelength of 320 nm with column temperature of 45°C. Average spike recoveries for samples prepared at 4 spiking levels (22.7, 181, 907, and 1000 g/ton) were 111.0, 94.9, 96.2, and 98.6%, respectively. The overall method precision at each of the 4 spiking levels was ≤ 7.85% relative standard deviation. The limits of detection and quantitation (g/ton) were 2.16 and 7.20 g/ton, respectively.

Abstract A method has been developed for determination of bisphenol A diglycidyl ether (BADGE) in 3 aqueous-based food simulants: water, 15% (v/v) ethanol, and 3% (w/v) acetic acid. BADGE is extracted with C18 cartridges and the extract Is concentrated under a stream of nitrogen. BADGE is quantltated by reversed-phase liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection. Relative precision at 200 μg/L was 3.4%, the detection limit of the method was 0.1 μg/L, and recoveries of spiking concentrations from 1 to 8 μg/L were nearly 100%. Relative standard deviations for the method ranged from 3.5 to 5.9%, depending on the identity of the spiked aqueousbased food simulant.

Abstract A method is presented for detection and quantitation of Roxarsone in poultry feed by liquid chromatography. The drug is extracted by phosphate buffer and determined by solid phase extraction and reversed-phase liquid chromatography. Recoveries of the sample spikes and fortified field samples agree closely with those obtained by the standard spectrophotometric method.

Abstract A method for the simultaneous determination of ty-losin and tilmicosin residues in animal tissues is reported. Solid-phase extraction columns are used to isolate the drugs from tissue extracts. Determination is accomplished by reversed-phase liquid chromatography with UV detection at 287 nm. Mean recoveries from spiked tissues were 79.9% (coefficient of variation [CV], 8.1%) for tylosin and 92.6% (CV, 8.7%) for tilmicosin. Detection limits for tylosin and tilmicosin were 0.020 and 0.010 ppm, respectively.
