Abstract: | An electron capture gas chromatographic method for the determination of sulfamethazine was modified to separate and quantitate simultaneously sulfamethazine and 2 of its metabolites, N4-acetylsulfamethazine and desaminosulfamethazine. The modified method was applied to incurred residues in a veal calf depletion study and to incurred residues in swine tissues. With capillary column gas chromatography-positive ion chemical ionization mass spectrometry, confirmation of the identities of incurred desaminosulfamethazine, N4-acetylsulfamethazine, and sulfamethazine in tissues was obtained from a single injection. |
