A method for quantifying florfenicol amine (FFA) in channel catfish muscle was validated according to U.S. Food and Drug Administration guidelines. FFA is the proposed marker residue for the veterinary antibiotic florfenicol in catfish muscle for regulatory surveillance purposes. The method includes acid hydrolysis followed by sample cleanup with ethyl acetate extraction, basification, solid-phase extraction, and quantitation by liquid chromatography with UV detection. The assay was validated at 5 concentrations in the range of 0.075-35 microg/g muscle. The overall mean recovery of FFA from fish tissues fortified at these concentrations ranged from 85.7 to 92.3%, 4.8-17.2% relative standard deviation (RSD). The assay limit of detection was 0.044 microg/g muscle based on analysis of control muscle. Catfish muscle samples containing incurred florfenicol residues were analyzed in quintuplicate with RSD5%. Acid hydrolysis has previously been demonstrated to convert florfenicol and its known metabolites to FFA and to release a significant amount of FFA from nonextractable florfenicol residues in tissues containing incurred residues in other species. By using acid hydrolysis, this method should yield a more accurate estimate of the total florfenicol-related residue level in muscle tissue from florfenicol-treated catfish than could be achieved by solvent extraction alone. |
