    Abstract:
    A previously developed method that uses a simplified sample preparation and fluorometric detection of liquid chromatographic eluates for the determination of oxolinic acid in salmon muscle has been collaboratively studied. Five laboratories participated in the study to analyze, in quintuplicate, blank salmon muscle fortified at 10, 20, 50, and 100 micrograms/kg (ppb), and 2 incurred samples from salmon given feed with medicated oxolinic acid. The tissue, 2 g mixed with 2 g Na2SO4, is extracted with ethyl acetate and centrifuged, and the solvent is evaporated. The residue is partitioned in a mixture of hexane and 0.01 M oxalic acid, and the aqueous phase is chromatographed using fluorescence detection at 327 nm excitation and 369 nm emission. Mean recoveries ranged from 77.2 to 84.5% in spiked samples with reproducibility relative standard deviation (RSDR) ranging from 11.5 to 18.3%. Treated salmon were found to contain 8.71 and 53.8 micrograms/kg with RSDR of 18.6 and 16.7%, respectively. The corresponding repeatability relative standard deviations (RSDR) were 5.8-12.2%, and 7.7 and 6.2%. The method is recommended for regulatory purposes in Canada.
