Recently, there have been increasing safety concerns about the illegal abuse of quinolone in soybean sprouts. This study aimed to establish an ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method for the simultaneous detection of 16 quinolones (QNs) in soybean sprouts, and then reveal their degradation characteristics. The samples were extracted with acetonitrile (with 1% formic acid), purified by a C18 adsorbent, and separated by an ACQUITY UPLC BEH C18 (1.7 μm, 2.1 mm × 100 mm) column. The internal standard method was applied for quantitative determination. The results demonstrated that the quantification linear range for 16 QNs was between 2.0 ng/mL and 50.0 ng/mL. The detection limits were between 0.5 μg/kg and 4.0 μg/kg, and the quantification limits were between 2.0 μg/kg and 20.0 μg/kg. This method was used to screen for quinolones in 50 batches of market soybean sprouts; the obtained results showed good agreement with those of the standard method. It was found that QNs possessed longer degradation half-life (T1/2) in the storage stage of soybean sprouts, while they degraded to some extent during the germination stage via active enzyme action. In particular, ciprofloxacin was the most stable QNs with a T1/2 of 70.71 d during the storage stage of soybean sprouts. This work not only offers an accurate and efficient QNs residual analysis strategy but also provides a reference for the supervision and management of QNs in foods. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
