| Abstract: | Anticoccidial drugs are extensively used in the poultry industry to control the infection of the single-cell protozoa of the genus Eimeria. The most commonly used coccidiostats in poultry are the polyether ionophores such as narasin and salinomycin. This paper presents a rapid and simple method for the screening of residues of these two coccidiostatic compounds in poultry and eggs. The method is based on time-resolved fluoroimmunoassay. Sample preparation of eggs consists only of one extraction and evaporation step, and a solid phase extraction step is needed only for the muscle sample preparation. Mean recoveries were 91.0% from muscle tissue and 81.1% from eggs for both narasin and salinomycin. The performance of the assay was evaluated only for narasin because salinomycin had a cross-reactivity of 100% in the assay, and the recoveries of the compounds were not significantly different (P >0.05). The limits of detection mean + 3 x standard deviation (SD)] of narasin were 0.56 and 0.28 microg/kg, and the limits of quantification (mean + 9 x SD) were 1.80 and 0.57 microg/kg for muscle and eggs, respectively. The coefficients of variation (CV) of the interassay precision of the method, evaluated by five replicate analyses of muscle samples spiked with 2 microg/kg of narasin and egg samples spiked with 1 microg/kg of narasin, were 4.1 and 6.4%, respectively. The CVs of intra-assay precision tests, determined by 10 replicate analyses at the above-mentioned concentration levels, were 3.8 and 4.5%, respectively. |
