An LC/ESI (positive-mode)-MS/MS method was developed for simultaneous quantification of 8 macrocyclic lactones (abamectin B1a, abamectin 8,9-Z isomer B1a, emamectin benzoate B1a, emamectin benzoate 8,9-Z isomer B1a, ivermectin, eprinomectin B1a, doramectin and moxidectin) in animal tissues, egg, milk and honey. The separation was achieved on a TSK-GEL ODS 100 V column (2.0 x 50 mm, 3 microm) with a mobile phase consisting of 0.

Analytical method for the simultaneous quantification of avermectins (AVMs), abamectin B1a, abamectin 8,9-Z isomer B1a, emamectine benzoate B1a, emamectine benzoate 8,9-Z isomer B1a, ivermectin, eprinomectin B1a, doramectin and moxidectin in bovine tissues (muscle, liver and fat) was developed by LC-MS/MS in electrospray positive ion mode. The separation was achieved on a short TSK-GEL ODS 100V column with the mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile and aquatic 0.1 mM ammonium formate containing 0.

A highly sensitive and selective method using LC-ESI-MS/MS and tandem-SPE was developed to detect trace amounts of avoparcin (AV) antibiotics in animal tissues and milk. Data acquisition using MS/MS was achieved by applying multiple reaction monitoring of the product ions of [M + 3H](3+) and the major product ions of AV-alpha and -beta at m/z 637 --> 86/113/130 and m/z 649 --> 86/113/130 in ESI(+) mode. The calculated instrumental LODs were 3 ng/mL.
