    Abstract:
    A liquid chromatographic method for determination of thiabendazole, 5-hydroxythiabendazole, oxfendazole, mebendazole (MBZ), and fenbendazole (FBZ) in cattle liver and muscle was collaboratively studied in 7 laboratories in 1986. For blind fortified samples containing 800 ppb FBZ, average recovery and relative standard deviations for repeatability and reproducibility (RSDr and RSDR) based on results from 6 of the participating laboratories were 83%, 12.7%, and 14.0%, respectively. Recoveries of FBZ from incurred liver samples were more variable. Recoveries of MBZ from livers fortified at the 100 ppb level were encouraging; however, the drug levels were too low in the incurred samples used for MBZ studies. Except for FBZ and MBZ in liver, the study data were not satisfactory. The method has been adopted official first action by AOAC for determination of 800-1600 ppb fenbendazole in liver. The analysis should be repeated using a smaller sample size when initial analyses show levels greater than 1600 ppb FBZ.
