Development and validation of a multiresidue liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry method for 11 coccidiostats in feed. 2013

A confirmatory method for the determination of 11 regulated coccidiostats including the ionophore antibiotics lasalocid, maduramicin, monensin, narasin, salinomycin, and semduramicin and the chemical coccidiostats decoquinate, diclazuril, halofuginone, nicarbazin, and robenidine in animal feed was developed and validated. The procedure was intended for the identification and quantification of the coccidiostats at concentrations relating both to the unintentional carryover as stated in Regulation 574/2011 and to the authorized levels in target feed. The analytes were determined by LC/MS/MS in the positive or negative electrospray ionization mode. The method performance characteristics were estimated in the relevant application field from 0.003 to 200 mg/kg. Validation criteria of linearity, specificity, trueness, precision, LOD, and LOQ along with measurement uncertainty were estimated for all analytes. Absolute and relative matrix effects were also studied. The results proved that the method performance was satisfactory, and it was successfully applied to carryover control by analyzing 165 feed samples collected within regulatory monitoring plans. Finally, since the carryover phenomenon in feed may result in the presence of residues in food products of animal origin, a survey has been carried out on the occurrence of coccidiostats in 167 eggs and animal muscles.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007783 Lactones Cyclic esters of hydroxy carboxylic acids, containing a 1-oxacycloalkan-2-one structure. Large cyclic lactones of over a dozen atoms are MACROLIDES. Lactone
D007832 Lasalocid Cationic ionophore antibiotic obtained from Streptomyces lasaliensis that, among other effects, dissociates the calcium fluxes in muscle fibers. It is used as a coccidiostat, especially in poultry. Avatec,Lasalocid A,Ro 2-2985,X-537A,Ro 2 2985,Ro 22985,X 537A,X537A
D008985 Monensin An antiprotozoal agent produced by Streptomyces cinnamonensis. It exerts its effect during the development of first-generation trophozoites into first-generation schizonts within the intestinal epithelial cells. It does not interfere with hosts' development of acquired immunity to the majority of coccidial species. Monensin is a sodium and proton selective ionophore and is widely used as such in biochemical studies.
