Schneider United States Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service - Eastern Reg. Research Ctr. Eric Verdon, Dominique Hurtaud-Pessel, Pierrick Couëdor French Agency for Food, Environment and Occupational Health Safety ANSES - Laboratory of Fougères

2 History AOAC Stakeholders Panel on Marine and Freshwater Foods Quantitative method needed for: Malachite green, leucomalachite green, crystal violet, and leucocrystal violet Shrimp, tilapia, catfish, and salmon 2010 Standard Method Performance Requirements SMPR

3 Veterinary Drug Subgroup Members Identified methods to meet SMPR Recovery = %; Precision = 46 % LOD = 0.5 µg/kg; LOQ = 1.0 µg/kg 2012 ERP Assembled - Analytical Method Selected: Hurtaud-Pessel, Couëdor, Verdon - ANSES J. Chromatogr. A 1218 (2011) 1632 Method used in proficiency testing in European Union

4 Method Principal Extraction of muscle with ACN in the presence of hydroxylamine and magnesium sulfate Extract evaporation and dissolution of analytes in acetonitrile/ascorbic acid Analysis by LC-MS/MS Quantitative analysis with extracted matrix calibrants and four deuterated internal standards to correct for matrix effects and extraction losses
