Determination of closantel and rafoxanide in animal tissues by online anionic mixed‐mode solid‐phase extraction followed by isotope dilution liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry

Food safety is a priority public health concern that demands analytical methods capable to detect low concentration level of contaminants (e.g. pesticides and antibiotics) in different food matrices. Due to the high complexity of these matrices, a sample preparation step is in most cases mandatory to achieve satisfactory results being usually tedious, lengthy, and prone to the introduction of errors. For this reason, many research groups have focused efforts on the development of online systems capable to do the cleanup, concentration, and separation steps at once through multidimensional separation techniques (MDS). Among several possible setups, the most popular are the multidimensional chromatographic techniques (MDC) that consist in combining more than one mobile and/or stationary phase to provide a satisfactory separation. In the present review, we selected a variety of multidimensional separation systems used for food contaminant analysis in order to discuss the instrumentation aspects, the concept of orthogonality, column approaches used in these systems, and new materials that can be used in these columns. Selected classes of contaminants present in food matrices are introduced and discussed as example of the potential applications of multidimensional liquid phase separation techniques in food safety.

The determination of residues and contaminants in complex matrices such as in the case of food, environmental, and biological samples requires a combination of several steps to succeed in the aimed goal. At least three independent steps are integrated to provide the best available situation to deal with such matrices: (1) a sample preparation technique is employed to isolate the target compounds from the rest of the matrix; (2) a chromatographic (second) step further "purifies" the isolated compounds from the co-extracted matrix interferences; (3) a spectroscopy-based device acts as chromatographic detector (ideally containing a tandem high-resolution mass analyzer) for the qualitative and quantitative analysis. These techniques can be operated in different modes including the off-line and the on-line modes. The present report focus the on-line coupling techniques aiming the determination of analytes present in complex matrices. The fundamentals of these approaches as well as the most common set ups are presented and discussed, as well as a review on the recent applications of these two approaches to the fields of bioanalytical, environmental, and food analysis are critically discussed.

An improved selectivity method for the simultaneous determination of four benzotriazoles (benzotriazole, 4-methylbenzotriazole, 5-methylbenzotriazole, and 5,6-dimethyl-1H-benzotriazole) and six benzothiazoles (benzothiazole, 2-hydroxybenzothiazole, 2-benzothiazolamine, mercaptobenzothiazole, 2-methylbenzothiazole, and 2-methylthiobenzothiazole) in aqueous matrices has been developed. Under optimal conditions, analytes are concentrated using a MAX solid-phase extraction (SPE) cartridge, based on divinylbenzene-N-vinylpyrrolidone functionalized with quaternary amine groups, which allows reversed-phase interactions in combination with ionic exchange. Selected compounds are recovered with methanol–acetone 7:3 (v/v) whereas acidic interferences remained attached to the sorbent, and as determined by liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), LOQs for surface, urban and industrial wastewater are in the range of 0.002-0.29 ng/mL. Figures of merit of the method revealed good precision (RSD% <12%), linearity (R2 > 0.99) and accuracy (%R = 80-100%) for surface waters and effluents allowing direct external standard quantification. For more complex samples, such as urban and industrial raw wastewater, either the standard addition method or pseudo-external standard calibration using matrix matched standards are recommended. Analysis of different real samples, surface, urban wastewater and, for the first time, metal industry wastewater, reflected concentrations up to 310 ng/mL. The methylbenzotriazole isomers ratio was also determined.
