[Collaborative Study of an LC-MS/MS Method for Determination of Chlorpropham in Feeds].

A collaborative study for validating the determination method of chlorpropham in feeds by LC-MS/MS was conducted in 13 laboratories using 2 kinds of formula feeds, oats, barley, wheat, and corn. The resulting trueness ranged from 75.3 to 87.

Detection of ruminant meat and bone meal in feeds by sandwich ELISA with monoclonal antibodies.

A sensitive and reproducible enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using two monoclonal antibodies directed against a synthetic peptide with an amino-acid sequence related to the C-terminus of bovine myoglobin and the whole molecule of sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS)-denatured bovine myoglobin was adapted for detecting bovine myoglobin in contaminated feeds. The ELISA employed bovine meat extract of a known myoglobin concentration as a calibration standard and had an limit of detection (LOD) of 3.54 ng/ml and an limit of quantification (LOQ) of 11.
