This research developed and optimized the methods for simultaneous determination of tetracycline (TCs), macrolide (MLs) and sulfonamide (SAs) antibiotics in soils using accelerated solvent extraction (ASE)- solid-phase extraction (SPE)-high performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS). Methanol-citric acid (pH=4.7) was used as extraction solvent, diatomite (washed by EDTA) was used as dispersing agent. Firstly, soil was extracted by ASE with the parameter conditions: pressure 1500 psi, temperature 70°C, static 10 min, 1 circle, then pre-concentration by SPE and followed by HPLC-MS/MS analysis. Recovery was 86.3%~97.4% for SAs, 67.3%~87.4% for TCs and 68.4%~78.3% for MLs. RSD < 9 % and r > 0.99. Limits of detection (LOD) was 0.5~0.9 ug/kg for SAs, 0.2~1.1 ug/kg for TCs and 0.2~0.3 ug/kg for MLs. This method determined 9 kinds of antibiotics within 15 min, the determination accuracy can meet the requirements of actual analysis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
