The presence of chloramphenicol residues in goat milk can cause toxic effects in the population. The present work consists of the optimization and validation of analytical methodology for determination of chloramphenicol residues in goat milk by GC/ECD. The extraction was made with ethyl acetate and the clean-up with SPE-C18. The identification was made by comparison of retention time and GC/MS, and the quantification by external standard. The method was selective, linearity (0.998), precise (5.8-13.4%), exact (69.87-73.71%) and robust. The LOD and LOQ of method were 0.030 and 0.10 μg/kg, respectively. The method was efficiently for analysis of chloramphenicol in goat milk.
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.
