Multi-residue confirmatory method for the determination of twelve coccidiostats in chicken liver using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry.
The confirmatory LC-MS/MS method for the determination of residues for twelve coccidiostats including ionophore antibiotics (lasalocid, maduramycin, monensin, narasin, salinomycin, semduramycin) and chemical coccidiostats (clazuril, decoquinate, diclazuril, halofuginone, nicarbazin and robenidine) in poultry liver has been developed. The sample preparation was based on extraction with acetonitrile, defatting with Alumina columns and clean-up on Oasis HLB spe. The separation of analytes was performed on PhenylHexyl column with a gradient of acetonitrile, methanol and the ammonium formate pH 4.0. For all analytes, at least 2 diagnostic fragmentation ions were monitored. The validation, performed according to the CD 2002/657/EC, proved the suitability of the method for the confirmatory analysis of the coccidiostats. For lasalocid, however, low reproducibility was observed and the proper quantification could not be performed with this method.
