Abstract
In the work, a rapid, simple and high-throughput sample preparation method was developed for the determination of sulfonamide (SA) antibiotic residues in chicken breast muscle. The extraction and clean-up were online combined and up to 20 samples can be treated simultaneously in 6 min. The SAs were first extracted with acetonitrile under the action of microwave energy, and then the extract was directly introduced into the SPE column for on-line clean-up and concentration. Subsequently, the SAs eluted from the SPE column were determined by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The precisions of extraction results of 20 samples were in the range of 4.9-7.4%. The limits of detection and quantification obtained were in the range of 2.4-3.6 ng/g and 8.6-11.3 ng/g for SAs, respectively. The recoveries of SAs obtained by analyzing chicken muscles at three fortified levels (10, 50 and 500 ng/g) were in the range of 82.6-93.2%. The results of the validation process prove that the proposed method is suitable for treating numbers of complex samples simultaneously in a short time.
