A method was developed and validated to determine 5-hydroxyflunixin in raw bovine milk using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS). The mean recovery and percentage coefficient of variation (%CV) of 35 determinations for 5-hydroxyflunixin was 101% (5% CV). The theoretical limit of detection was 0.2 ppb with a validated lower limit of quantitation of 1 ppb and an upper limit of 150 ppb. Accuracy, precision, linearity, specificity, ruggedness, and storage stability were demonstrated. A LC/MS/MS confirmatory method using the extraction steps of the determinative method was developed and validated for 5-hydroxyflunixin in milk from cattle. Briefly, the determinative and confirmatory methods were based on an initial solvent (acetone/ethyl acetate) precipitation/extraction of acidified whole milk. The solvent precipitation/extraction effectively removed incurred ((14)C) residues from milk samples. The organic extract was then purified by solid phase extraction (SPE) using a strong cation exchange cartridge (sulfonic acid). The final SPE-purified sample was analyzed using LC/MS/MS. The methods are rapid, sensitive, and selective and provide for the determination and confirmation of 5-hydroxyflunixin at the 1 and 2 ppb levels, respectively.  相似文献

This study describes a new method developed for detection of 10 different perfluorochemicals (PFCs) in cow's milk, seven perfluorinated carboxylates and three perfluorinated sulfonate salts. After attempting multiple methods employing both acidic and basic extractions, a basic extraction using 10 mM sodium hydroxide in methanol digestion along with weak anion-exchange solid-phase extraction was employed. Vortex mixing and varying sonication times were compared as part of sample processing. Results show that sonication during sample processing yield decreased recovery of longer chain perfluorinated carboxylates. The final method developed was used to determine the concentration of PFCs in 12 raw and 49 retail milk samples from across the United States. With the exception of a single raw milk sample obtained from a dairy farm that had applied PFC containing biosolids to its fields, there were no milk samples containing PFCs.  相似文献

Free oligosaccharides are key components of human milk and play multiple roles in the health of the neonate, by stimulating growth of selected beneficial bacteria in the gut, participating in development of the brain, and exerting antipathogenic activity. However, the concentration of oligosaccharides is low in mature bovine milk, normally used for infant formula, compared with both human colostrum and mature human milk. Characterization of bovine milk oligosaccharides in different breeds is crucial for the identification of viable sources for oligosaccharide purification. An improved source of oligosaccharides can lead to infant formula with improved oligosaccharide functionality. In the present study we have analyzed milk oligosaccharides by high-performance liquid chromatography chip quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry and performed a detailed data analysis using both univariate and multivariate methods. Both statistical tools revealed several differences in oligosaccharide profiles between milk samples from the two Danish breeds, Jersey and Holstein-Friesians. Jersey milk contained higher relative amounts of both sialylated and the more complex neutral fucosylated oligosaccharides, while the Holstein-Friesian milk had higher abundance of smaller and simpler neutral oligosaccharides. The statistical analyses revealed that Jersey milk contains levels of fucosylated oligosaccharides significantly higher than that of Holstein-Friesian milk. Jersey milk also possesses oligosaccharides with a higher degree of complexity and functional residues (fucose and sialic acid), suggesting it may therefore offer advantages in term of a wider array of bioactivities.  相似文献

A confirmatory assay able to unambiguously identify and quantify 10 approved-for-use beta-lactam antibiotics in milk below stipulated U.S. and EU tolerance levels is presented. beta-Lactams are extracted from 10 mL of intact milk by a Carbograph 4 cartridge. After solvent removal, residue reconstitution, and filtration, a completely transparent and uncolored extract is injected into a liquid chromatography -mass spectrometry (LC-MS) instrument equipped with an electrospray (ES) ion source and a single quadrupole. During the chromatographic run, the ES/MS system is operated first in the positive-ion mode (PI) and then in the negative-ion (NI) mode. This is done to circumvent matrix interferences resulting in remarkable signal weakening of the last-eluted analytes, when detecting them as [M+H]+ adduct ions. MS data acquisition is performed by a time-scheduled three-ion selected ion monitoring program. At the 5 ng/mL level, recoveries of the beta-lactams are between 70 (nafcillin) and 108% (cephalin), with relative standard deviations ranging between 5 (oxacillin) and 11% (amoxicillin and ceftiofur). The response of the ES/MS detector is linearly related to injected amounts up to 500 ng, irrespective of the chemical characteristics of the beta-lactams and the acquisition mode selected (PI or NI modes). Limits of quantification, based on a minimal value of the signal-to-noise ratio of 10, were estimated to be within 0.4 (cephalin) and 3 ng/mL (dicloxacillin). Analyses of milk samples taken after intramammary application of amoxicillin showed that 1.2 ng/mL of this penicillin was still present 6 days after treatment. At this concentration level, the identification power of the method is not weakened, as signals of the three product ions of amoxicillin are still well distinguishable from the background noise.  相似文献

An analytical method has been developed for the determination of total bound and extractable residues of the nitrofuran drugs furazolidone, nitrofurazone, furaltadone, and nitrofurantoin in milk of dairy cows. The method involves overnight acid hydrolysis and simultaneous derivatization of the released side chains with 2-nitrobenzaldehyde. During hydrolysis, the bound metabolites are hydrolyzed to the side chains. After pH adjustment and solid-phase extraction cleanup, the derivatives are detected and quantitated using a liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry system with an atmospheric pressure chemical ionization interface. Validation of the method is accomplished by fortifying control milk with a mixture of side chains at 1, 2, and 4 ng/g. Internal standards are added at the beginning of the procedure to compensate for matrix effects and recovery losses. Method accuracies range from 83 to 104% with coefficients of variation less than 13% for all four analytes. The limits of detection are相似文献

A precise and selective liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method for the determination of dapsone in muscle tissue and milk has been developed. The sample preparation was based on extraction with organic solvent and automated solid-phase extraction (SPE) cleanup. At least three product ions were monitored for the analyte. The method was validated according to the European Decision 2002/657/EC. Estimated analytical limits were 0.0018 ng/g for CCα and 0.0031 ng/g for CCβ in meat and milk. An excellent linear concentration range was observed for both matrices with a correlation coefficient better than 0.997. Recoveries were 105-117% in meat and 101-108% in milk, with satisfactory precision and coefficients of variance (CV) less than 8%. Additionally, a simplified quantification approach was successfully evaluated depending only on the response factor (F) without the use of calibration curve. The developed method provides reliable and sensitive identification and quantification of dapsone in meat and milk.  相似文献

A quadrupole time-of-flight (Q-TOF) liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) method was developed to analyze veterinary drug residues in milk. Milk samples were extracted with acetonitrile. A molecular weight cutoff filter was the only cleanup step in the procedure. Initially, a set of target compounds (including representative sulfonamides, tetracyclines, β-lactams, and macrolides) was used for validation. Screening of residues was accomplished by collecting TOF (MS(1)) data and comparing the accurate mass and retention times of found compounds to a database containing information for veterinary drugs. The residues included in the study could be detected in samples fortified at the levels of concern with this procedure 97% of the time. Although the method was intended to be qualitative, an evaluation of the MS data indicated a linear response and acceptable recoveries for a majority of target compounds. In addition, MS/MS data were also generated for the [M + H](+) ions. Product ions for each compound were identified, and their mass accuracy was compared to theoretical values. Finally, incurred milk samples from cows dosed with veterinary drugs, including sulfamethazine, flunixin, cephapirin, or enrofloxacin, were analyzed with Q-TOF LC-MS. In addition to monitoring for the parent residues, several metabolites were detected in these samples by TOF. Proposed identification of these residues could be made by evaluating the MS and MS/MS data. For example, several plausible metabolites of enrofloxacin, some not previously observed in milk, are reported in this study.  相似文献

Animal feeds occasionally have some degree of contamination by Aspergillus spp. Even pasteurized milk at times contains the toxic liver carcinogen aflatoxin M1 (AFM1). Confirmation of its presence is now done with solid-phase extraction (SPE) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)-fluorescence, using a small enough sample that SPE time is reasonable. In this study 200 mL of milk was extracted using a C18 disk at a flow rate of approximately 100 mL/min and AFM1 quantified by HPLC-tandem mass spectrometry with negative electrospray ionization. The effectiveness and cleanup efficacy of immunoaffinity columns (IAC) was compared with that of Mycosep multifunctional cleanup columns (MFC). Average recovery and detection limits of whole milk and low-fat milk cleaned up by IAC were significantly superior to those obtained with the MFC (78-87% and 0.59-0.66 ng/L, respectively). The new procedure improves extraction speed, sensitivity, and specificity.  相似文献

Human milk is a complex biological fluid that provides not only primary nourishment for infants but also protection against pathogens and influences their metabolic, immunologic, and even cognitive development. The presence of oligosaccharides in remarkable abundance in human milk has been associated to provide diverse biological functions including directing the development of an infant's intestinal microflora and immune system. Recent advances in analytical tools offer invaluable insights in understanding the specific functions and health benefits these biomolecules impart to infants. Oligosaccharides in human milk samples obtained from five different individual donors over the course of a 3 month lactation period were isolated and analyzed using HPLC-Chip/TOF-MS technology. The levels and compositions of oligosaccharides in human milk were investigated from five individual donors. Comparison of HPLC-Chip/TOF-MS oligosaccharides profiles revealed heterogeneity among multiple individuals with no significant variations at different stages of lactation within individual donors.  相似文献

An accurate, reliable, and reproducible assay was developed and validated to determine flunixin in bovine liver, kidney, muscle, and fat. The overall recovery and percent coefficient of variation (%CV) of twenty-eight determinations in each tissue for flunixin free acid were 85.9% (5.9% CV) for liver, 94.6% (9.9% CV) for kidney, 87.4% (4.7% CV) for muscle, and 87.6% (4.4% CV) for fat. The theoretical limit of detection was 0.1 microg/kg (ppb, ng/g) for liver and kidney, and 0.2 ppb for muscle and fat. The theoretical limit of quantitation was 0.3, 0.2, 0.6, and 0.4 ppb for liver, kidney, muscle, and fat, respectively. The validated lower limit of quantitation was 1 ppb for edible tissues with the upper limit of 400 ppb for liver and kidney, 100 ppb for fat, and 40 ppb for muscle. Accuracy, precision, linearity, specificity, ruggedness, and storage stability were demonstrated. Briefly, the method involves an initial acid hydrolysis, followed by pH adjustment ( approximately 9.5) and partitioning with ethyl acetate. A portion of the ethyl acetate extract was purified by solid-phase extraction using a strong cation exchange cartridge. The eluate was then evaporated to dryness, reconstituted, and analyzed using LC/MS/MS. The validated method is sensitive and specific for flunixin in edible bovine tissue.  相似文献

Chitin neoglycoconjugates (BSA-CO) were obtained by the conjugation of bovine serum albumin (BSA) with chitin oligosaccharides (CO) through the Maillard reaction (nonenzymatic glycation). CO produced by acid hydrolysis of chitin were fractionated using an ultrafiltration membrane system (1-3 kDa cutoff). The Maillard reaction was carried out by heating a freeze-dried mixture containing BSA and CO at 60 °C (under 43% relative humidity for 6 and 12 h). BSA-CO were characterized by available amino groups content, intrinsic tryptophan emission spectra, gel electrophoresis, and mass spectrometry. Biological assays included interaction with wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) and with bacterial adhesins of Escherichia coli K88+ and Salmonella choleraesuis. Glycation of BSA was revealed by reduction of available amino groups and fluorescence intensity and also retarded migration through SDS-PAGE. Conjugation of BSA with chitin oligomers appeared to be time dependent and was confirmed by mass spectrometry, by which molecular mass increase for monomers and dimers was observed. Monomers were estimated to contain either one or two glycation sites (at 6 and 12 h of treatment, respectively), with one or two tetrasaccharide units attached. Consequently, dimers showed two or four glycation sites. BSA-CO presented biological recognition by WGA and E. coli K88+ and S. cholerasuis adhesins. The strategy used in this work represents a simple method to obtain glycoconjugates to study applications involving protein-carbohydrate recognition.  相似文献

A confirmatory method using liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry for determination of five macrolide antibiotics including spiramycin, tilmicosin, oleandomycin, erythromycin, and tylosin in raw milk is presented. Macrolides were extracted from raw milk by acetonitrile, and sample extracts were further cleaned up using solid-phase extraction cartridges. Data acquisition was achieved using multiple reaction monitoring, that is, two transitions, to provide a high degree of sensitivity and specificity. Matrix-matched standard calibration curves with the use of roxithromycin as an internal standard were utilized to achieve the best accuracy of the method. Both a conventional validation procedure and a designed experiment were applied to study the accuracy and precision of the method. The measurement uncertainty arising from accuracy and precision was estimated. The method accuracy, expressed as a percentage of overall recovery, was approximately 100%, and its intermediate precision was <10%. LC-ESI/MS/MS method detection limits (S/N > or = 3:1) of five macrolides were <0.3 microg/kg.  相似文献

A simple specific and rapid confirmatory method for determining the two amphoteric penicillins, that is, amoxicillin and ampicillin, in bovine muscle, liver, kidney, and milk is presented. This method is based on the matrix solid-phase dispersion technique with hot water as extractant followed by liquid chromatography (LC)-tandem mass spectrometry. With this instrumentation, the selected reaction monitoring acquisition mode with two fragmentation reactions for each analyte was adopted. After acidification and filtration of the aqueous extracts, 25 microL of the tissue final extracts and 50 microL of the milk final extract were injected into the LC apparatus. Absolute recovery of the two analytes in any biological matrix at the 50 ppb level in tissues and the 4 ppb level in milk was 74-95% with relative standard deviations (RSDs) of no larger than 9%. When penicillin V was used as surrogate internal standard, relative recovery of the targeted compounds present in bovine tissues and milk at, respectively, 25 and 2 ppb levels ranged between 100 and 106% with RSDs of no larger than 11%. When fractionation of analytes by using a short chromatographic run was attempted, remarkable signal weakening for the two analytes was experienced. This effect was traced to polar endogenous coextractives eluted in the first part of the chromatographic run that interfered with the gas-phase ion formation of the two penicillins. Slowing the chromatographic run eliminated this unwelcome effect. Limits of quantification of the two analytes in bovine milk were estimated to be <1 ppb, whereas amoxicillin and ampicillin could be quantified in bovine tissues down to 3.1 and 0.8 ppb levels, respectively.  相似文献

A duplex Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) method able to detect bovine milk in ovine cheeses was developed. This method is based on the mitochondrial 12S and 16S rRNA genes to generate fragments of different lengths. The proposed methodology presents an alternative DNA extraction procedure faster and more economical than the kits commercially available. A linear normalized calibration curve was obtained between the log of the ratio of the bovine band intensity and the sum of bovine and ovine band intensities versus the log of cow's milk percentage. The method was applied successfully to the detection and quantification of raw, pasteurized, and powdered bovine milk in different cheeses. The proposed duplex PCR provides a simple, sensitive, and accurate approach to detect as low as 0.1% bovine milk in cheeses and to quantify bovine milk in ovine cheeses in the range of 1-50%.  相似文献

The carcinogenic compound ptaquiloside is produced by bracken fern (Pteridium aquilinum L.). Ptaquiloside can enter the soil matrix and potentially leach to the aquatic environment, and methods for characterizing ptaquiloside content and fate in soil and groundwater are needed. A sensitive detection method has been developed using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) for analyzing ptaquiloside and its transformation product pterosin B. Detection limits are 0.19 microg/L (ptaquiloside) and 0.15 microg/L (pterosin B), which are 300-650 times better than previously published LC-UV methods. Sequential soil extractions are made using 5 mM ammonium acetate for extraction of ptaquiloside, followed by 80% methanol extraction for pterosin B. Groundwater samples are cleaned-up and preconcentrated by a factor of 20 using solid-phase extraction. The LC-MS/MS method enables quantification of ptaquiloside and pterosin B in soil and groundwater samples at environmentally relevant concentrations and delivers a reliable identification because of the structure-specific detection method.  相似文献

beta-Casein was quantified in milk and cheese, using an optical immunosensor, based on surface plasmon resonance (SPR) measurement. The assay consists of a two-step sandwich strategy, with two anti-beta-casein antibodies directed against each extremity of the casein. This strategy permits only native beta-casein to be quantified and not its degradation products. The calibration curve was obtained with a reference milk powder of known beta-casein concentration. The analysis time per sample was less than 10 minutes. The antibody-coated surface could be used for more than 250 determinations. The detection limit was established at 85 ng x mL(-)(1) and the intra- and inter-assay variation coefficients were 2.6 and 6.2% respectively. The method was applied to raw milk to quantify intact beta-casein, with no pretreatment of the sample. A second application was realized with cheese, to follow the proteolysis of beta-casein during ripening.  相似文献

Microsample deproteinization of bovine milk was carried out on-line using a series of restricted access medium (RAM) bovine serum albumin (BSA) columns: C8, C18, phenyl, and cyano. The four different columns prepared showed a high percentage of protein exclusion using water as the mobile phase and provided an appropriate retention profile for a series of five cephalosporin antibiotics (cefoperazone, cephacetril, cephalexin, cephapirin, and ceftiofur). Chromatographic conditions such as washing time, buffer pH, and type and percentage of organic modifier were fully evaluated with respect to the protein elution profile and retention of the antibiotic by RAM column. One of these columns was chosen to develop and validate a method for the determination of cefoperazone in bovine milk. The system used in this work was composed of a RAM-BSA phenyl column coupled to a C18 analytical column. The standard curve was linear over the range 0.100-2.50 microg/mL. The limits of quantification and detection were 0.100 and 0.050 microg/mL, respectively. The developed method showed high intermediate precision (CV of 2.37-2.63%) and accuracy (90.7-94.3%) with adequate sensitivity for drug monitoring in bovine milk samples.  相似文献

A rapid confirmatory method for monitoring chloramphenicol (CAP) residues in honey, whole milk, and eggs is presented. This method is based on the polymer monolith microextraction (PMME) technique and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (MS). A poly(methacrylic acid-ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) monolithic capillary column was selected as the extraction medium. To obtain optimum extraction efficiency, several parameters related to PMME were investigated. After dissolution in 20 mM phosphate solution at pH 4.0 and centrifugation, honey, eggs, or milk samples were directly passed through the extraction tube. The LC-MS instrument was equipped with an electrospray ion source and a single quadrupole. The eluates were analyzed by LC-MS in the negative-ion mode and by monitoring a pair of isotopic ions for the target compound. The in-source collision-induced dissociation process produced confirmatory ions. The recoveries of CAP from real samples spiked at 0.1-10 ng/g (honey), 0.2-10 ng/mL (milk), and 0.2-10 ng/g (egg) were in the range of 85-102%, with relative standard deviations ranging between 2.1% and 8.9%. The limits of detection (S/N = 3) were 0.02 ng/g, 0.04 ng/mL, and 0.04 ng/g in honey, milk, and eggs, respectively. The proposed method was proved to be robust in monitoring CAP residue in honey, milk, and eggs.  相似文献

Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis of the tryptic digest of a cleaned-up food matrix extract was used for the detection of milk allergens. The emphasis of this study was on casein, which is the most abundant milk protein and is also considered the most allergenic. A sample cleanup method was developed using an ion exchange column and centriprep device. Cookies spiked with milk powder from 0 to 1250 ppm were extracted, cleaned up, and either digested directly by trypsin or further cleaned up by gel electrophoresis before digestion. The peptide mixture was analyzed on a capillary LC-quadrupole time-of-flight system. Two marker peptides from alphaS1-casein were identified and used for prescreening. The MS/MS data from the mass spectrometry system were processed with Masslynx v4.0 and submitted for database search using either ProteinLynx Global Server or Mascot for protein identification. The LC-MS/MS method, using casein enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay as a reference, was tested on the cookie matrix and was extended to other sample matrices. There were good agreements between the two. This LC-MS/MS method provides a valuable confirmatory method for the presence of casein. It also allows the simultaneous detection of other milk allergens.  相似文献

The development and in-house testing of a method for the quantification of milk fat in chocolate fats is described. A database consisting of the triacylglycerol profiles of 310 genuine milk fat samples from 21 European countries and 947 mixtures thereof with chocolate fats was created under a strict quality control scheme using 26 triacylglycerol reference standards for calibration purposes. Out of the individual triacylglycerol fractions obtained, 1-palmitoyl-2-stearoyl-3-butyroyl-glycerol (PSB) was selected as suitable marker compound for the determination of the proportion of milk fat in chocolate fats. By using PSB values from the standardized database, a calibration function using simple linear regression analysis was calculated to be used for future estimations of the milk fat content. A comparison with the widely used butyric acid method, which is currently used to determine the milk fat content in nonmilk fat mixtures, showed that both methods were equivalent in terms of accuracy. The advantage of the presented approach is that for further applications, i.e., determination of foreign fats in chocolate fats, just a single analysis is necessary, whereas for the same purpose, the C4 method requires two different analytical methods.  相似文献
