title: High performance liquid chromatographic determination of phenothiazine residues in sheep tissues.
abstract: A high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) technique is described for the determination of residue levels of the anthelmintic drug phenothiazine in sheep tissues. Phenothiazine was administered to sheep which were slaughtered after withholding periods of 24, 48, and 72 h. Residues of phenothiazine were then extracted from tissue samples by homogenization in methanol. The HPLC analysis of the extracts involved separation on a 10 micrometer silica column using a mobile phase of 0.3% n-propanol in cyclohexane. The lower limit of detection by ultraviolet absorption at 254 nm was 0.05 ppm.
