Title: Simultaneous determination of oxytetracycline, tetracycline, and chlortetracycline in milk by liquid chromatography. Author: Thomas MH. Journal: J Assoc Off Anal Chem; 1989; 72(4):564-7. PubMed ID: 2759986. Abstract: A simple, rapid procedure is described for the simultaneous quantification of 3 tetracycline drugs in bovine milk. Samples are prepared by dilution with an EDTA/phosphate buffer solution and filtration through a molecular weight cutoff filter. Analytes are concentrated on-column using a reverse-phase gradient elution system of oxalic acid, acetonitrile, and methanol. The limits of quantitation are approximately 15-50 ng/mL and the limits of detection are 10-20 ng/mL, depending on the compound. For oxytetracycline, over the range 50-1200 ng/mL, the average recovery and intralaboratory coefficient of variation were 97% and 4.1%, respectively. Over the same range, these parameters were, respectively, 97% and 5.0% for tetracycline, and 89% and 6.4% for chlortetracycline. The applicability of this procedure is demonstrated by separation and detection of incurred tetracycline residues in milk from treated animals.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
