摘要
A rapid, sensitive and specific ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry （UPLC-MS） method was developed for the analysis of tetracycline antibiotics, including tetracycline （TC）, oxytetracycline （OTC）, chlortetracycline （CTC） and their 4-epimers （4-epiTCs） in agricultural soil fertilized with swine manure. Soil samples were extracted and cleaned-up with 10 mL EDTA-McIlvaine buffer solution （pH 4.0）, then cleaned-up and pre-concentrated using the Oasis MAX cartridge and then eluted with 1 mL solution by mixing formic acid, methanol and water at a ratio of 2：15：83 （v/v/v）. The purified samples were separated by an ACQUITY UPLC BEH C18 column using acetonitrile and water containing 0.1% formic acid mobile phase and detected by a single quadrupole MS. The limits of detection for the soil extraction method （LODsoil） ranged from 0.6-2.5 lag kg-~ with recoveries from 23.3-159.2%. Finally, the method was applied to an agricultural field in an area with intensive pig-fattening farming. Tetracyclines were detected in soil from 2.8 to 42.4 μg kg-1 soil. These results demonstrate that soil from swine farms can become severely contaminated with tetracycline antibiotics and their metabolites.
