Abstract:
An online sampling and matrix reduction technique coupled liquid chromatography electrospray-ion-trap mass spectrometry was developed for rapid analysis of maduramicin (MAD) residue in chicken meat. Multiple-reaction monitoring of mass spectrometry in positive ion mode was used to detect maduramicin. A post-column continuous infusion of internal standard (nigericin) with matrix-matched calibration method was utilised for quantification. The linear concentration range of the calibration curve was 0-10.0 ng mL(-1) (r(2)=0.999). The limit of detection (quantification) was 0.08 ng g(-1) (0.28 ng g(-1)). The analytical accuracy of chicken meat samples for four spiked MAD concentrations (0.5, 1.0, 5.0, and 10.0 ng g(-1)) was 84-97% and their corresponding intra-day and inter-day precisions were 3.7-5.0% and 5.8-7.9%, respectively. The analysis time for one sample was 10 min. The application of the method for incurred chicken samples elucidates that MAD residue in chicken meat decreases during the withdrawal period.
