Abstract:
A novel precolumn derivatization-GC-MS/MS method was developed for the determination of decoquinate residues in chicken tissues (muscle, liver, and kidney). The samples were extracted and purified by liquid-liquid extraction combined with solid-phase extraction and derivatized with acetic anhydride and pyridine. The recovery rates for decoquinate were 77.38~89.65%, and the intra-day and inter-day RSDs were 1.63~5.74% and 2.27~8.06%, respectively. The technique parameters meet the necessities for veterinary drug residue detection in China, the US, and the EU. Finally, the method was applied to analyze tissues of 60 chickens bought from a neighborhood supermarket, and solely one sample of chicken muscle contained 15.6 μg/kg decoquinate residue.
