Optimal Eluting Condition for Analysis of Tetracycline and Its Derivatives in Shrimp
using High Performance Liquid Chromatography
Napawan Tumsangthong, Varipat Areekul and Tatiya Siharai
A high- performance liquid chromatography with photodiode-ar ay detector (HPLC-DAD) was
optimized for analysis of oxytetracycline, tetracycline and chlortetracycline in shrimp. The performance criteria was considered retention time (RT), resolution (Rs) and capacity factor (k') comparing between isocratic elution, modified isocratic elution and gradient elution. The RT, Rs and k were statistical y dif erent among elution conditions (p≤0.05). The result obtained from fortified sample indicated that the best condition for analysis was using the gradient elution which the separation time was accomplished at 9.2 min and no overlapping peak was observed. The recovery mean (%) was at the international acceptable level. Key Words: Tetracycline, HPLC, shrimp, optimal condition E-mail address: [email protected] (N. Tumsangthong)
