    Abstract:
    A liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (LC-ESI MS/MS) method for the determination of 5 polyether antibiotics (lasalocid, salinomycin, monensin, narasin and maduramicin) in chicken tissues was developed. The polyether antibiotics were extracted from chicken tissues with methanol. The extract was evaporated to dry, and redissolved in hexane, then cleaned up on a Sep-Pak Silica solid-phase extraction cartridge. The target drugs were eluted with 6 mL methylene chloride-methanol (90:10, v/v), and the eluate was collected and dried under a gentle stream of nitrogen gas, then the residue was dissolved with 1 mL acetonitrile (containing 0.1% formic acid) and analyzed by LC-MS/MS. The LC separation was performed on a Symmetry Shield reversed phase C18 bonded silica column with acetonitrile (containing 0.1% formic acid)-0.1% formic acid (97:3, v/v) as mobile phase. The quantification was carried out by positive electrospray ionization and multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. The validation was carried out on spiked chicken muscle (spiked at 0.1 -1500 microg/kg) and chicken liver (spiked at 0.2-4500 microg/kg), the average recoveries of target drugs ranged from 71.6%-99.1% with intra-day relative standard deviations (RSDs) of 3.2%-10.7% and inter-day RSDs of 4.6%-14.7%. The limits of quantification (LOQs) in chicken muscle and liver were 0.1-1.0 kg/kg. The results demonstrated that the sensitivity, accuracy and precision of this method meet the requirements of veterinary drug residue analysis. The method is applicable to detect 5 polyether antibiotics in chicken muscle and liver.
