ABSTRACT
A simple pretreatment method based on the combination of microwave-assisted extraction and dispersive micro solid phase extraction has been developed for the extraction of eprinomectin, doramectin, ivermectin, and abamectin from cow meat, liver, and kidney samples. The extracted drugs were determined using high-performance liquid chromatography equipped with a diode array detector. In this method, the solid samples were mixed with deionized water and organic solvent mixture, and the resulting mixtures were exposed to microwave irradiations to accelerate the analytes' extraction from the samples into the solution. Then, the supernatant was taken and mixed with a mixture of three sorbents optimized by a simplex centroid design. After vortexing and centrifuging, the sorbent particles were isolated and the adsorbed analytes onto the sorbent surface eluted with a natural deep eutectic solvent for more concentration. After centrifuging, the supernatant was taken and injected into the separation system. Acceptable repeatability (relative standard deviations ≤7.0%), high extraction recoveries (72%-86%) and enrichment factors (216-258), and low limits of detection and quantification (0.06-0.10 and 0.19-0.32 ng/g, respectively) were acquired. The method was successfully applied for the assessment of the analytes in the mentioned samples and ivermectin was found in three samples.
