Liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrophotometry (LC-MS/MS) has been developed for simultaneous determination of four antibiotics which have coccidiicidal effects including monensin, dimetridazole, sulfadimethoxin, and sulfadimidine in feed samples. The research conducted by using mobile phase A (0.1% formic acid solution; 10 mM ammonium formate) and phase B (MeOH; 0.1% formic acid; 10 mM ammonium formate) with C18 reversed-phase chromatography column (2.1 × 1.5 mm, ID 3.5 μm) simultaneously and successfully identified these four antibiotics in a short time about 10 minutes. The method detection limits and quantification limits for all analytes were 15.0 and 45.0 µg/kg, respectively. The calibration curve of the method was in the range of 45 - 1,500 µg/L. The method was validated for high accuracy, efficiency and applied to analyze the feed samples on the Hanoi market.
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.
