Abstract
A spectrofluorometric (SPF) method is described for determination of residues of BAY Vp 2674 in chicken and turkey tissues. The drug is extracted from tissues with dichloromethane-methanol. The organic extract is concentrated to near dryness and cleaned up by a series of partitionings with n-hexane, then dichloromethane against pH 2 buffer and dichloromethane against pH 12 buffer. The drug is partitioned into dichloromethane from pH 7 buffer and concentrated to dryness. The residue is dissolved in pH 3.5 buffer for SPF analysis at 282 nm (excitation) and 445 nm (emission). Recoveries of BAY Vp 2674 added to chicken and turkey tissues at levels of 0.05, 0.1, and 0.2 ppm range from 86 to 92% with a coefficient of variation of 3.4-10.1%. Detection limit is 0.02 ppm. A liquid chromatographic confirmatory procedure is also described, with ultraviolet and fluorescence detection.
