Abstract A simple, rapid, and sensitive method was developed for detection and quantitation of lysine (Lys) in various biological samples by isocratic liquid chromatography (LC). Samples containing Lys and other amino acids were derivatized with 9-fluorenylmethyl chloroformate (FMOC-CI). The mobile phase used for isocratic elution was 50 mmol/L sodium acetate buffer (pH 4.20)-acetonitrile (43 + 57, v/v). Lys was detected with a UV detector at 265 nm. The derivatized Lys eluted from a LiChrospher 100 RP-18 (150× 4.0 mm id) column at a retention time of 5.6 min. The limit of detection was 0.73 μmol/L (signal-to-noise [S/N] ratio, 3:1), and the limit of quantitation was 2.37 μmol/L (S/N ratio, 10:1). Lys recoveries from fortified biological samples were >97.5%. Average Lys contents found in rumen fluid samples collected before the morning feeding and at 2.0,4.0, and 6.0 h after feeding were 4.26,3.34,3.58, and 3.82 μmol/L, respectively. The hydrolysate of a sample of mixed rumen microorganisms collected before the morning feeding was determined to contain 1.372 μmol/mg microbial nitrogen in the form of Lys. The Lys concentrations of human plasma, goat plasma, human urine, and goat urine were 140.0, 102.0,58.0, and 32.0 μmol/L, respectively.

Abstract This paper describes a new method for the sensitive and selective determination of fosetyl-aluminum (Al) residues in vegetable samples. The method involves extraction with water by using a high-speed blender and subsequent injection of the 5-fold diluted extract into the liquid chromatograph. Fosetyl-Al is determined by liquid chromatography with electrospray tandem mass spectrometry after the addition of tetrabutylammonium acetate as the ion-pairing re-agent. The method has been used to assay lettuce samples spiked at 2 and 0.2 mg/kg. Recoveries were satisfactory, with mean values of 98 and 106%, respectively, and relative standard deviations were <10%. The limit of quantitation was 0.2 mg/kg, and the limit of detection was as low as 0.05 mg/kg. Matrix-matched calibration was used for quantitation, and the addition of an internal standard improved repeatability. The developed method allows the accurate and rapid determination of low levels of fosetyl-Al residues in lettuce with very little sample handling and good sensitivity; it was shown to be robust by the analysis of almost 100 samples.

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.

Abstract A highly sensitive and selective method that requires minimal sample preparation was developed for the confirmation and quantitation of cyclamate in a variety of foods by high-performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC/MS/MS). Sample preparation consisted of homogenization followed by extraction and dilution of cyclamate with water. HPLC separation was achieved using a bridged ethyl hybrid C18 high-pressure column with a mobile phase consisting of 0.15 acetic acid and methanol. Under electrospray ionization negative conditions, quantitation was achieved by monitoring the fragment m/z 79.7 while also collecting parent ion m/z 177.9. Two food matrixes, diet soda and jelly, were subjected to a validation procedure in order to evaluate the applicability of the method. The cyclamate limit of detection for both matrixes was determined to be 0.050 g/g with a limit of quantitation of 0.150 g/g. The correlation coefficient of the calibration curves was >0.9998 from 0.0005 to 0.100 g/mL. The method has been used for the determination of cyclamate in several foods and the results are presented.

Abstract A liquid chromatographic method is described for the quantitative measurement of nicarbazin in chicken liver, fat, muscle, and skin tissues. The 4,4'-dinitrocarbanilide (DNC) portion of nicarbazin is extracted from tissues with ethyl acetate. After filtration and evaporation, the extract is purified by liquid-liquid partitioning with acetonitrile-hexane and alumina cartridge chromatography. DNC is separated and measured by reverse-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) with an octadecylsilyl (ODS) column and a UV detector set at 340 nm. The overall average recovery of DNC added to tissues was 83.4 ±3.1%. The lowest level validated in tissues by this procedure was 0.10 ppm. The limit of detection was estimated to be 0.020 ppm. This method provides a sensitive, selective, rapid, and reproducible alternative to existing purification, separation, and detection techniques, such as differential pulse polarography and colorimetry, for determination of nicarbazin in chicken tissues. Identity of DNC is confirmed by subjecting the purified extracts to thermospray-LC/mass spectrometric analysis using negative-ion detection and selected ion monitoring. Three structural-indicating ions at m/z 302,272, and 164 are monitored in the thermospray-mass spectrum which are characteristic of the DNC molecule.

A reliable and rapid method has been developed for the determination of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) in four kinds of feedstuffs comprising broken rice, peanuts, corn, and fishmeal. A sample preparation was carried out based on the QuEChERS method with the exclusion of the clean-up step. In this study, AFB1 was extracted using acetonitrile/methanol (40/60 v/v), followed by partitioning with sodium chloride and magnesium sulfate. High-performance liquid chromatography with precolumn derivatization and fluorescence detection was performed. The coefficients of determination were greater than 0.9800. Throughout the developed method, the recovery of all feedstuffs achieved a range of 82.50-109.85% with relative standard deviation lower than 11% for all analytes at a concentration of 20-100 ng/g. The limit of detection (LOD) ranged from 0.2 to 1.2 ng/g and limit of quantitation (LOQ) ranged from 0.3 to 1.5 ng/g. The validated method was successfully applied to a total of 120 samples. The occurrence of AFB1 contamination was found at the following concentrations: in broken rice (0.44-2.33ng/g), peanut (3.97-106.26ng/g), corn (0.88-50.29 ng/g), and fishmeal (1.06-10.35 ng/g). These results indicate that the proposed method may be useful for regularly monitoring AFB1 contamination in feedstuffs.
