Abstract
Determination of sodium monofluoroacetate in dairy powders by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) is discussed. Samples are dissolved in water and extracted into acetone to allow precipitation of proteins. After centrifugation, the solutions are passed through an anion exchange column and eluted with acid to give free fluoroacetic acid. This acid is converted to 2-fluoro-3?-nitroacetanilide via a carbodiimide-mediated amide coupling reaction. The derivative is then subjected to SPE cleanup, eluting with t-butyl methyl ether (TBME)?n-hexane, concentrated and quantified by LC-MS/MS using derivatized isotopically substituted sodium fluoroacetate as an internal standard.
