title: Liquid chromatographic determination of cyclopiazonic acid in poultry meat.
abstract: A liquid chromatographic procedure has been developed for the determination of cyclopiazonic acid (CPA) in poultry meat. CPA is extracted from ground meat with chloroform-methanol (80 + 20), partitioned into 0.1N sodium hydroxide, acidified, and extracted into dichloromethane. An interfering component of meat is removed by transferring the dichloromethane extract to a minicolumn containing silica gel and washing the column with petroleum ether and chloroform. CPA is eluted with methanol-acetic acid (99 + 1), and subjected to ligand-exchange liquid chromatography. Recovery of CPA from 40 separate samples of meat spiked with CPA at levels from 0.016 to 15.6 ppm was 70.4 +/- 14.1%. Analysis of meat from a chicken orally dosed with 10 mg CPA/kg body weight revealed that 14.5% of the dose was in muscle 48 h after administration.
