Determination of tetracyclines in multi-specie animal tissues by pressurized liquid extraction and liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry

2009

Abstract A specific, sensitive and robust pressurized liquid extraction (PLE) and liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) method for determining tetracycline, chlortetracycline, oxytetracycline and doxycycline in bovine, swine, poultry and lamb muscle tissues is presented. PLE was performed using an ASE ® 200 from Dionex and water as extractant, followed by solid-phase extraction (SPE) using an Oasis HLB cartridge. The method was validated for beef, chicken, pork and lamb meat in compliance with the requirements set by Commission Decision, 2002/657/EC [Commission Decision 2002/657/EC (2002). Implementing Council Directive 96/23/EC concerning the performance of analytical m…

A new derivatization procedure for the determination of cephalexin with 1,2-naphthoquinone 4-sulphonate in pharmaceutical and urine samples using sol…

1998

Abstract The present report shows how to derivatize cephalexin with 1,2-naphthoquinone-4-sulphonate (NQS) into solid-phase extraction cartridges (C18) using UV–visible detection. Optimum conditions for this new procedure are: hydrogen carbonate/carbonate buffer pH=10.5, 5 min reaction time at 25°C and NQS concentration of 7.1×10−3 mol l−1. The accuracy and the precision of the method were tested. The procedure was used to measure cephalexin in pharmaceutical and urine samples. The results obtained were contrasted with those reported by UV-spectrophotometric and HPLC methods for pharmaceutical samples and with HPLC method for urine samples. The H-point standard additions method was used to m…

Evaluation of extraction alternatives for Fourier transform infrared spectrometric determination of oil and greases in water

1997

Abstract Liquid-liquid extraction (LLE), solid phase extraction (SPE) and microwave-assisted extraction are evaluated for Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometric determination of oil and grease in polluted waters. A fast microwave-assisted quantitative procedure is proposed for the total extraction of oil and grease into CCl 4 from water samples, with an irradiation time of 1 min at an exit power of 520 W using closed PTFE vessels. The FTIR quantification of oil and grease is carried out by the measurement of the area under the absorbance spectra in the range between 3058 and 2780 cm −1 , with a baseline established between 3200 and 2700 cm −1 . The analytical features of the propos…

Profiling of endogenous peptides by multidimensional liquid chromatography: On-line automated sample cleanup for biomarker discovery in human urine.

2009

A simple and flexible system, employing a column switching technique, has been designed to allow the analysis of peptides and proteins smaller than 15 kDa by molecular weight in filtered urine samples by performing a direct on-column injection utilising simultaneous sample clean-up and trace enrichment. The positively charged peptides and small proteins in the sample are attracted to the inner, negatively charged pore structure of the RAM-SCX column while the larger proteins and uncharged or negatively charged compounds are excluded. After preconditioning with the biological sample, large amounts of sample can be injected. Several important and adjustable parameters for the proper use of a …

Liquid chromatographic determination of aliphatic amines in water using solid support assisted derivatization with 9-fluorenylmethyl chloroformate

2002

A simple and sensitive method has been developed for the liquid chromatographic determination of short-chain aliphatic amines in water. Analytes are retained in solid-phase extraction (SPE) cartridges, and then derivatized by drawing an aliquot of the fluorogeneic reagent 9-fluorenylmethyl chloroformate (FMOC) through the cartridges. After a certain reaction time the derivatives formed are desorbed with acetonitrile. The collected extracts are then chromatographed on a LiChrospher 100 RP18 125 mm×4 mm i.d., 5 μm, column using an acetonitrile-water gradient. The influence of experimental conditions (SPE material, volume of sample, concentration of FMOC, time of reaction and pH) has been inve…

Determination of triazines and organophosphorus pesticides in water samples using solid-phase extraction.

1991

Abstract Octadecyl (C 18 )-bonded porous silica was evaluated for the extraction of triazine and organophosphorus pesticides from natural water. The extraction results showed an effective performance when 1 l of water was passed through small glass columns containing 500 mg of 50–100-μm C 18 bonded porous silica. The absorbed compounds were removed with ethyl acetate, evaporated to 200 μl and determined by gas chromatography. The overall average recoveries were greater than 85% except for dimethoate and trichlorfon. Application of this procedure to the analysis of natural water samples gave results that agree well with those obtained by solvent extraction methods.

Off-line dansylation of amines using C18 solid-phase packings: study of the fluorescence and chemiluminescence detection by post-column derivatizatio…

1999

Abstract Dansylation of amines (primaries and secondaries) using C18 solid-phase supports is described. The time of analysis and the handing sample have been markedly improved with respect to those required for solution dansylation. The dansylated amine derivates were injected onto the liquid chromatography system and fluorescence detected. The sensitivity and selectivity is better than the other dansylation procedures described in the literature and also better than other derivatization reagents such 1,2-napthoquinone 4-sulfonate (NQS) or 3,5-dinitrobenzoyl chloride (3,5-DNB). Dansyl compounds can also form chemiluminescent derivatives, therefore a post-column derivatization procedure with…

BEHAVIOUR OF GRAPHITIZED CARBON BLACK IN THE EXTRACTION OF POLAR NON-IONIC NITROGEN-CONTAINING PESTICIDES. A CHECKING OF HYPOTHESES

2000

Graphitized Carbon Black (GCB) extractive cartridges are evaluated for on-line coupling with a C8 analytical column to determine eleven carbamates and one carboximide pesticide from spiked deionized water at the 1.2 μg/L level. Several experiments were carried out to ascertain whether GCB saturation, pesticide degradation on the surface, existence of by-pass channels, mobility among the bulk cartridge, or strong retention on the surface interfere with the determination of pesticides. Problems in on-line CGB elution are partially solved by modifying the acetonitrile/water gradient to contain a front of 100% acetonitrile for a few seconds. Eluting the same GCB cartridges off-line with dichlor…

Solid phase extraction of amines

2005

Abstract The objective of this paper is to provide information about solid phase extraction (SPE) as an alternative to liquid–liquid extraction of amines from several matrices. Different sorbents ranging from non-polar phases, such as C 18 silica to more polar such as cyanopropylsilica (CN) have been tested for analysis of aliphatic amines as monoamines, diamines and polyamines. Phenylalkylamines such as amphetamine or methamphetamine and heterocyclic amines such as histamine or cephalosporins (which also contain a carboxylic group), have also been studied. The different steps involved in the extraction procedure have been tested (conditioning, retention, pre-concentration, washing and elut…
