Ivermectin, a veterinary drug, is commonly used endectocide for animal husbandry. The drug is available in the form of subcutaneous or topical formulations. Its application may cause accumulation of its residues into the animal tissues, which ultimately find their way into the food products, such as milk and meat products. In order to determine the residues of ivermectin in milk, a comparatively simple, sensitive and rapid method was developed and validated using LC-MS/MS. The MRM transitions corresponding tom/z892.71>569.6, 892.71>551.5 and 892.71>307.3 were used for the purpose of quantification and evaluation of other parameters of the method. The limit of detection of the method was found to be 0.1 μg/kg and the limit of quantitation was calculated as 0.2 μg/kg. The method was found to be linear in the range of 1.0 ng/mL to 100.0 ng/mL with correlation coefficient of 0.9992 for pure calibration curve and 0.9990 for the matrix- matched calibration curve. The recoveries of ivermectin from the spiked samples of raw milk were found between 85 to 105%.

Nitrite and Nitrate have been used extensively as additives in various meat products to enhance flavor, color, and to preserve the meat from the bacterial growth. High concentrations of nitrite can threat human health since several studies in the literature claim that nitrite is associated with cancer incidences, leukemia, and brain tumors. Therefore, it is vital to measure the nitrite concentrations in processed meat products. In this study, an in-lab miniaturized photometric detection system is fabricated to inspect the nitrite concentration in processed meat products in Jordan. The analytical performance of nitrite detection is evaluated based on three key statistical parameters; linearity, limit of detection, and limit of quantitation. Respectively, for the fabricated system, the three values are found to be equal to 0.995, 1.24 × 10−2 ppm, and 4.12 × 10−2 ppm. Adherence to Beer’s law is found over the investigated range from 2.63 ppm to 96.0 ppm. The developed system is utilized for photometric detection of nitrite in processed meat products available in the Jordanian market like pastrami, salami, and corned beef. In all of the analyzed samples, the nitrite content is found to be lower than 150 ppm, which represents the maximum allowable nitrite limit.

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.

A new kinetic spectrophotometric method is described for the determination of ultratrace amounts of sodium cromoglycate (SCG). The method based on catalytic action of SCG on the oxidation of amaranth with periodate in acidic and micellar medium. The reaction was monitored spectrophotometrically by measuring the decrease in absorbance of the amaranth at 518 nm, for the first 4 min from initiation of the reaction. Calibration curve was linear in the range of 4.0−36.0 ng mL−1SCG. The limit of detection is 2.7 ng mL−1SCG. The relative standard deviation (RSD) for ten replicate analyses of 12, 20, and 28 ng mL−1SCG was 0.40%, 0.32%, and 0.53%, respectively. The proposed method was used for the determination of SCG in biological samples.

Abstract An accurate, rapid, simple, and novel technique was developed to determine simvastatin (SMV). In this research, a screen-printed electrode (SPE) was deposited with graphene oxide (GO) and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), respectively. For the first time, the handmade modified SPE measured the SMV by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) with high sensitivity and selectivity. The results of cyclic voltammetry indicated the oxidation irreversible process of SMV. Various parameters (pH, concentration, scan rate, support electrolyte) were performed to optimize the conditions for the determination of SMV. Under the optimum experiment condition of 0.1 M KNO3 as support electrolyte and pH 7.0, the linear range was achieved for SMV concentration from 1.8 to 36.6 µM with a limit of detection (LOD), and a limit of quantitation (LOQ) of 0.06 and 1.8 µM, respectively. The proposed method was successfully utilized to determine SMV in tablets and urine samples with a satisfactory recovery in the range of 96.2 to 103.3%.

Abstract: A simple, precise and economical UV-spectrophotometric method has been developed for the estimation of Olmutinib from bulk. Two methods were developed First method (A) applied was area under curve (AUC) in which the area was integrated in wavelength from 262-272nm. Second method (B) was first order derivative spectrometric method. In this method absorbance at λmin=256.57nm, λmax=282.83nm and zero cross=267.68nm was measured. Calibration curves were plotted for the method by using instrumental response at selected wavelength and concentration of analyte in the solution. In both the methods, linearity was observed in the concentration range of 2-12µg/ml at the λmax=267.68nm. Accuracy and precision studies were carried out and results were satisfactorily obtained. The drug at each of the 80 %, 100 % and 120 % levels showed good recoveries that is in the range of 98.00 to 99.00% for both methods, hence it could be said that the method was accurate. Limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantitation (LOQ) were determined for the method. The method was validated as per International Conference on Harmonization. All validation parameters were within the acceptable limit. The developed method was successfully applied to estimate the amount of Olmutinib in pharmaceutical formulation.

Abstract Nightshade berries containing glycoalkaloids can be a contaminant in green peas. Methodology was developed to detect this contamination. The glycoalkaloid α-solasonine was extracted from frozen green peas with 1% (v/v) acetic acid, cleaned up on a C18 cartridge, and determined by liquid chromatography with UV detection at 200 nm. Method performance characteristics for the determination of α-solasonine include linearity from 140 to 1500 ng injected (r = 0.9996–0.9999); recovery ranging from 68 to 79%; limit of quantitation (LOQ) = 4.5 ppm (280 ng standard), and limit of detection = 0.64 ppm (40 ng standard). At the LOQ, the expanded uncertainty at 95% confidence was 0.38 × the reported value. The method was applied to the detection of α-solasonine in frozen green peas in a 2-year study of 60 samples of frozen green peas from Ontario, Canada. None of the samples contained α-solasonine. No unripe berries of Solanum nigrum were detected visually in the samples.

Abstract A liquid chromatographic (LC) method is described for the determination of vitamin K1 in medical foods. The sample is enzymatically digested with lipase and α-amylase and extracted with 1% sodium bicarbonate solution–isopropanol (1 + 1). After C18 solid-phase extraction, vitamin K1 is separated by nonaqueous reversed-phase LC, converted to the hydroquinone by postcolumn zinc reduction, and quantitated by fluorescence detection. The limit of detection is 8 pg (3 σ), and the limit of quantitation is 27 pg (10 σ) on column. Linear response ranged from 0.1 to 1.0 ng vitamin K1 (r = 0.9999). The mean recovery (n = 38) for all spiking levels was 101.6 ± 2.85%. Analysis of Standard Reference Material 1846, Infant Formula, gave a mean value of 0.95 ± 0.088 mg vitamin K/kg (K or K1?)(n = 31) with a coefficient of variation of 9.26.
