A simple and rapid ion-pairing liquid chromatographic method was devel
oped for the simultaneous determination of five penicillins (PCs), amp
icillin (AB-PC), benzylpenicillin (PC-G), cloxacillin (MCI-PC), diclox
acillin (MDI-PC) and nafcillin (NF-PC) in milk. These PCs are most fre
quently used for the treatment of mastitis of cows. These antibiotics
were extracted with acetonitrile from milk and cleaned up by solid-pha
se extraction with a C-18 cartridge. PCs were separated on a Kaseisorb
LC ODS-300-5 column with a mobile phase (1 ml/min) of acetonitrile-me
thano1-0.05 M potassium dihydrogenphosphate (20:10:80, v/v/v) mixture
containing 5 mM of sodium 1-decanesulfonate adjusted to pH 3.5 and UV
detection at 210 nm. The average recoveries of five PCs from milk fort
ified at 0.5 and 1.0 mu g/ml (n=5) were 79.8-89.4% with relative stand
ard deviations ranging from 2.7 to 7.2%. The detection limit of PCs in
milk were 0.03-0.05 mu g/ml. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All right
