title: Development of a monoclonal antibody-based cELISA for the analysis of sulfadimethoxine. 2. Evaluation of rapid extraction methods and implications for the analysis of incurred residues in chicken liver tissue.
abstract: Several rapid extraction methods were evaluated for use with a monoclonal antibody-based competitive inhibition ELISA (cELISA) to detect sulfadimethoxine (SDM) in chicken liver tissue. These methods included extraction of the samples with (1) aqueous buffer with or without ultrafiltration, (2) acetonitrile/water, (3) methanol/water, or (4) acetone. The organic extraction methods were evaluated with or without solvent evaporation prior to dilution into assay buffer for the cELISA. The aqueous-based extraction methods were compatible with the cELISA. However, of the organic extraction methods, only the acetone liver extract with solvent evaporation prior to analysis was compatible with the cELISA. The cELISA method coupled to aqueous- or acetone-based sample extraction as well as an HPLC method was evaluated for the analysis of chicken liver tissues fortified with SDM at levels from 0.2 to 0.025 ppm. Mean SDM recoveries for the HPLC method and for the cELISA method using samples prepared by aqueous extraction, aqueous extraction and ultrafiltration, or acetone extraction, evaporation, and reconstitution were 68.9, 95.7, 60.1, and 52.5%, respectively. For the analysis of samples obtained from an SDM incurred residue study, HPLC and cELISA analysis of the same organic extract gave results that were highly correlated (R(2) = 0.976; p < 0.0001). However, results obtained from the analysis of aqueous extracts by cELISA did not correlate well with those obtained by HPLC (R(2) = 0.61, p > 0. 0006). This was attributed to the coextraction of cross-reactive SDM-related residues that were not quantified by the HPLC method. The presence of these residues should be considered during data interpretation when ELISA methods coupled with rapid aqueous extraction of samples are used in SDM residue monitoring programs.
