Abstract An improved method has been developed for quantitative determination of poiynuciear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in pharmacopoeial paraffin and medicinal white oil samples. This new method combines 2 liquid-liquid partition and adsorption chromatography procedures with a 2-step purification on Sephadex LH 20 and liquid chromatography with fluorometric determination. Selective elution of PAHs results in absence of background fluorescence. The minimum detectable level ranges from 0.2 ppt for benzofluoranthene isomers to 200 ppt for acenaphthene. Recoveries of PAHs added at 7 ppm varied from 92.1 to 111.4%. When a variety of medicinal white oil samples were analyzed by this improved method, 27 PAHs were identified, including 11 suspected carcinogens. Their identities were confirmed by capillary gas chromatography.

Abstract Fourteen sulfonamides—sulfanilamide, sulfadiazine, sulfathiazole, sulfapyridine, sulfam- erazine, sulfamethazine, sulfamethizole, sulfamethoxypyridazine, sulfachloropyridazine, sulfamonomethoxine, suļfadoxine, sulfamethoxazole, sulfadimethoxine, and sulfaquinoxoline—residues of which could be found in aquacultured species, were separated in <25 min by reversed-phase (C18) liquid chromatography (LC) with gradient elution. Analytes were extracted from edible salmon tissue (muscle and adhering skin) with acetonitrile—2% aqueous acetic acid, isolated with 2 liquid-liquid partitionings, and derivatized with fluorescamine after eluting from the column. The derivatives were detected by fluorescence. Recoveries (n = 4) from coho salmon fortified with sulfonamides at 5,10, and 20 ng/g tissue averaged 79.7± 7.3, 84.6 ± 7.7, and 88.2 ± 7.1%, respectively. Limits of quantitation were 5 ng/g tissue, for sulfanilamide, sulfamethoxypyridazine, and sulfaquinoxoline and 1 ng/g tissue for the remaining sulfonamides.

Abstract Quantitation of aflatoxins by liquid chromatography with postcolumn iodine derlvatization (LC-PCD) and fluorescence detection was compared with quantitation by the AOAC CB method, 968.22. Thirty-seven naturally contaminated corn samples were ground and then divided. One portion was extracted, and the extract was cleaned up and analyzed by thin-layer chromatography according to the CB method. The second portion was extracted and cleaned up In a similar fashion, but quantitation was by the LC-PCD method. For aflatoxin B1, concentrations ranging from 0 to 150 ng/g, results obtained by the 2 methods were fitted to a linear equation with the LC-PCD results as the dependent variable. The correlation coefficient was 0.99, the Intercept was near 0, and the slope was near 1. For aflatoxin B2, the correlation coefficient was 0.97, and the Intercept was near 0. However, the slope of the equation relating LC-PCD concentration to TLC concentration was only 0.5. We believe that this lack of equivalence between the methods for determination of aflatoxin B2 is due to overestlmatlon by the TLC method because the low levels present are near the TLC detection limit for B2.
