Abstract

To reduce matrix interference and realize simultaneous detection of multiple homologous compounds (trimethoprim (TMP), diaveridine (DVD), ormetoprim (OMP), baquiloprim (BQP), and aditoprim (ADP) in pig, cattle, chicken, and fish muscles), an immunomagnetic bead (IMB)-based sample purification pretreatment with HPLC-UV was developed. A broad-spectrum monoclonal antibody (mAb, named 14C6) was prepared and conjugated with carboxylic-acid-functionalized magnetic nanoparticles using the active ester method to obtain IMBs for sample purification. The extraction solvent was optimized based on the extraction efficiency. Good linearity was observed for all the five analytes (10-200 μg/kg) with the LOD and LOQ of 5 and 10 μg/kg, respectively. The mean recoveries ranged from 62.5% to 76.9%, while the coefficient of variation was <12.2%. The IMB method afforded greater sample purification and enrichment than those achieved with the SPE column-based conventional method. Hence, the IMB-based sample purification is a useful tool to determine 2,4-diaminopyrimidine residues in edible animal tissues.
