A procedure was developed to determine nosiheptide residues in marketed meat and egg. Acetonitrile was used for the extraction, and the extract was partitioned with hexane to remove fat. The lower layer was reconstructed and quantitated by liquid chromatography using fluorescence detection at 357 nm excitation and 500 nm emission. The mobile phase consisted of 0.025% phosphoric acid–acetonitrile (50 + 50, v/v). Recoveries of nosiheptide from fortified samples ranged from 91.3 to 95.2% for swine muscle, 88.6 to 92.7% for chicken muscle, and 86.3 to 86.8% for egg. The method was used to monitor swine and chicken muscle and egg (20 samples each) in the market. Nosiheptide was not determined in all 60 samples.
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.
