Preparation And Evaluation Of A Mixed-Bed Immunoaffinity Column For Selective Purification Of Sixteen Sulfonamides In Pork Muscle

This paper describes the preparation of a novel mixed-bed immunoaffinity chromatography (IAC) column by coupling four monoclonal antibodies against different sulfonamides (SAs) to Sepharose 4B. The IAC column can be used to simultaneously extract and purify 16 SAs in pork muscle. The dynamic column capacities for all SAs in mixed standard solution were between 312 and 479 ng/mL gel. After simple extraction and IAC cleanup, the sample solution can be directly injected for liquid chromatography-ultraviolet analysis. The recoveries of SAs from spiked samples at levels of 25, 50 and 100 µg/kg ranged from 83.3 to 103.1% with variation coefficient less than 8.6%. The comparison of IAC with liquid-liquid extraction and solid phase extraction indicated that IAC has better purification effect and needs less organic solution than conventional methods, thus it would be an ideal method for selective purification of SAs in pork muscle.
