title: [Determination of 11 anabolic hormones in fish tissue by multi-function impurity adsorption solid-phase extraction-ultrafast liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry].
abstract: A method was developed for the determination of 11 anabolic hormones (boldenone, androstenedione, nandrolone, methandrostenolone, methyltestosterone, testosterone, testosterone acetate, trenbolone, testosterone propionate, stanozolol, fluoxymesterone) in fish by multi-function impurity adsorption solid-phase extraction-ultrafast liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. After the sample was extracted by methanol, the extract was cleaned-up quickly by C18 adsorbent, neutral alumina adsorbent and amino-functionalized nano-adsorbent. The separation was performed on a Shim-Pack XR-ODS II column (100 mm x 2.0 mm, 2.2 microm) using the mobile phases of 0.1% (v/v) formic acid in acetonitrile and 0.1% (v/v) formic acid solution in a gradient elution mode. The identification and quantification were achieved by using electrospray ionization in positive ion mode (ESI+) in multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. The matrix-matched external standard calibration curves were used for quantitative determination. The results showed that the calibration curves were in good linearity for the eleven analytes with the correlation coefficients (r) more than 0.999. The limits of detection (LODs, S/N > 3) for the 11 anabolic hormones were from 0.03 microg/kg to 0.4 microg/kg and the limits of quantification (LOQs, S/N > 10) were from 0.1 microg/kg to 1.5 microg/kg. The average recoveries ranged from 80.9% to 98.1% with the relative standard deviations between 5.2% and 11.5%. The method is simple, rapid, sensitive, accurate and suitable for the quantitative determination and confirmation of the 11 anabolic hormones in fish.
