Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of product testing and analysis technology, and more specifically to an extraction solvent and detection method for bacitracin preparations in feed. Background Technology
[0002] Bacitracin, discovered in 1943, is a polypeptide antibiotic secreted by Bacillus. Its antibacterial spectrum is similar to penicillin, and it is primarily used to treat penicillin-resistant staphylococcal infections. Bacitracin is unstable and, when used as a feed additive, needs to form a stable complex with metal ions or disalicylic acid. Currently, bacitracin formulations mainly include bacitracin zinc and bacitracin methylenedisalicylate. Bacitracin zinc effectively prevents animal mortality and liver lesions caused by high doses of Clostridium perfringens in feed. Bacitracin methylenedisalicylate, because it dissolves in the slightly acidic environment of the small intestine, exerts its antibacterial and growth-promoting effects better than bacitracin zinc. Therefore, both bacitracin zinc and bacitracin methylenedisalicylate are widely used in animal husbandry and feed production both domestically and internationally.
[0003] However, further research by relevant scholars has found that the use of bacitracin preparations may cause nephrotoxicity and adverse reactions such as rashes and itching. The official release of Announcement No. 194 by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs on July 9, 2019, marked the removal of bacitracin zinc and methylene salicylate bacitracin preparations from the list of feed additives. To better regulate the use of bacitracin preparations as feed additives, how to detect bacitracin zinc and methylene salicylate bacitracin in feed has become a hot topic of concern.
[0004] A review of domestic and international literature revealed only detection methods for single bacitracin zinc in feed, with no reports on methylene salicylic acid bacitracin. Furthermore, bacitracin zinc and methylene salicylic acid bacitracin have significantly different physicochemical properties.
[0005] Therefore, how to overcome the significant differences in physicochemical properties and achieve the simultaneous detection of bacitracin zinc and methylene salicylate bacitracin is a problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention
[0006] In view of this, the present invention provides an extraction solvent and a detection method for bacitracin preparations in feed.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0015] (3) Standard curve of blank feed sample: The standard solution of blank feed sample was subjected to liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The peak area of bacitracin quantitative ion chromatography was used as the vertical axis and the mass concentration of the corresponding bacitracin standard solution was used as the horizontal axis to obtain the standard curve of blank feed sample.
[0016] (4) Take the sample to be tested, extract it according to the method in step (1), purify it according to the method in step (2), blow it dry with nitrogen, add methanol aqueous solution to redissolve it, mix well and filter to obtain the sample solution to be tested.
[0017] (5) Take the sample solution obtained in step (4) and perform liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry to determine the chromatographic peak area of the sample solution. Calculate the content of bacitracin A in the sample based on the feed blank sample standard curve.
[0018] The beneficial effects of the above operation are as follows: by extracting the sample to be tested with the specific extraction solvent of the present invention and purifying it with a specific C18 solid phase extraction column, the qualitative and quantitative detection of bacitracin zinc and methylene salicylic acid bacitracin with large differences in physicochemical properties is realized, which improves the accuracy and precision of the detection method of the present invention, increases the detection efficiency, simplifies the detection steps, and saves costs.
[0019] Preferably, the mass-to-volume ratio of the sample extracted to the extraction solvent in step (1) is 0.2-0.4 g / mL.
[0020] Preferably, the extraction method in step (1) is vortex extraction, with a vortex time of 0.5-1 min, an oscillation speed of 900-1000 r / min, and an oscillation extraction time of 15-20 min.
[0021] Preferably, the centrifugation step in step (1) includes a first centrifugation and a second centrifugation, wherein the centrifugation speed is 9000-10000 r / min and the centrifugation time is 3-5 min.
[0022] Preferably, in step (2), the mass-to-volume ratio of the supernatant to the EDTA solution is 0.25-0.5 ml; before passing the blank sample solution through the column, the extraction column is pre-activated with 5 ml of methanol and water in sequence; the eluent is an acetonitrile aqueous solution with a mass concentration of 15-20% and a volume of 3-5 ml; the elution buffer is methanol and a volume of 3-5 ml.

[0024] Preferably, in step (4), the mass concentration of the methanol aqueous solution is 20%, and the amount used is 1 ml.
[0025] As can be seen from the above technical solution, compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0026] (1) The bacitracin preparation extraction solvent of the present invention solves the problem that bacitracin zinc and methylene salicylic acid bacitracin have large differences in physicochemical properties and cannot be extracted at the same time; at the same time, the bacitracin extraction solvent of the present invention also solves the influence of different feed types on extraction efficiency, so that the extraction efficiency of the bacitracin preparation in different feed types is as high as 80% or more.
[0027] (2) The extraction solvent of this invention is used to perform qualitative and quantitative analysis on the feed to be tested, and a specific C18 solid phase extraction column is used for purification, which improves the accuracy and precision of the detection method and provides technical support for the standardized use of bacitracin preparations in feed.
[0028] (3) Full scanning of the bacitracin zinc and methylene salicylate bacitracin standard solutions within the range of 500-2000 revealed a major ion mass-to-charge ratio of 712, which is the mass-to-charge ratio of bacitracin A (molecular weight 1422.7) carrying two charges. No ions formed by directly charged bacitracin zinc (molecular weight 1486) and methylene salicylate bacitracin (molecular weight 1985) molecules were observed. This indicates that bacitracin zinc and methylene salicylate bacitracin in feed were analyzed using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry, and the analyte was determined to be bacitracin A. Based on this, bacitracin A was selected to reconstitute blank feed to prepare a blank feed sample standard solution. Attached Figure Description

[0042] Weigh 2.00 g of blank feed sample and place it in a 50 mL plastic centrifuge tube. Accurately add 10 mL of 12% ammonia-acetonitrile-methanol solution (1+1+1). Vortex for 30 s, then extract by shaking at 900 r / min for 15 min. Centrifuge at 9500 r / min for 3 min. Transfer the supernatant to another centrifuge tube. Add another 10 mL of 12% ammonia-acetonitrile-methanol solution (1+1+1) to the sample residue and repeat the extraction once. Combine the supernatants, accurately transfer 5 mL of the supernatant, add 10 mL of EDTA solution, and mix well for later use.
[0043] The solid-phase extraction column was pre-activated sequentially with 5 mL of methanol and water. The prepared solution was passed through the column, washed with 3 mL of 15% acetonitrile solution, and then eluted with 3 mL of methanol. The eluent was collected in a 10 mL centrifuge tube and dried under nitrogen at 40°C to obtain the residue. 1 mL of a known concentration of bacitracin A standard solution was accurately transferred to redissolve the residue. After redissolving, the solution was vortexed for 30 s, mixed thoroughly, and then filtered through a 0.22 μm microporous membrane to obtain a blank feed sample standard solution.

After vortexing for 30 s, the mixture was extracted by shaking at 900 r / min for 15 min, followed by centrifugation at 9500 r / min for 3 min. The supernatant was transferred to another centrifuge tube. 10 mL of 12% ammonia-acetonitrile-methanol solution (1+1+1) was added to the sample residue, and the extraction was repeated once. The supernatants were combined, and 5 mL of the supernatant was accurately transferred. 10 mL of EDTA solution was added, and the mixture was stirred well for later use.
[0053] The solid-phase extraction column was pre-activated with 5 mL of methanol and water in sequence.

The eluent was collected in a 10 mL centrifuge tube, dried under nitrogen at 40 °C, and reconstituted with 1 mL of 20% water-methanol solution. After mixing thoroughly, the solution was filtered through a 0.22 μm microporous membrane to obtain the sample solution to be tested.

[0108] Example 5
[0109] Optimization of different extraction solvents
[0110] a: Bacitracin is readily soluble in organic solvents such as water and methanol, but bacitracin zinc and methylene salicylate bacitracin are both bacitracin complexes, and their solubility in solvents will change.
[0111] This experiment first explored the extraction efficiency of formic acid water + acetonitrile (1+1), formic acid acetonitrile, ammoniated acetonitrile, ammoniated methanol, and formic acid methanol on different feeds (chicken compound feed, chicken concentrated feed, and chicken compound premixed feed). Bacitracin standard solution (BTC), bacitracin zinc standard solution (BZ), and methylene salicylate bacitracin technical solution (BMD) were added and recovered separately to ensure that the actual bacitracin concentration was 1.0 mg / kg.
[0112] The results showed that the extraction efficiencies of 1% formic acid acetonitrile and 5% ammoniated acetonitrile were both less than 10% in different feeds. When 2% formic acid water + acetonitrile (1+1) was used as the extraction solution, the extraction efficiencies of bacitracin and bacitracin zinc were in the range of 69.2%-102%, and the extraction efficiencies of methylene salicylate bacitracin were in the range of 36.8%-54.1%, indicating that the presence of a certain proportion of aqueous solution in the extraction solution could improve the extraction efficiency. When 5% ammoniated methanol and 1% formic acid methanol were used as the extraction solution, it was found that methylene salicylate bacitracin could not be effectively extracted in 1% formic acid methanol. When 5% ammoniated methanol was used as the extraction solvent, the extraction recoveries of bacitracin, bacitracin zinc, and methylene salicylate bacitracin were between 66.6%-103.3%, while the extraction recoveries of bacitracin standard solution were between 66.6%-79.6%, lower than the extraction recoveries of bacitracin zinc and methylene salicylate bacitracin. Furthermore, the extraction efficiency of premixed feed was lower than that of compound feed and concentrated feed. Therefore, further optimization of the ammoniated extraction solution is needed to improve extraction efficiency.
[0113] b. Compare the extraction efficiencies of ammonia water, ammoniated methanol, ammonia water + acetonitrile (1+1), ammonia water + methanol (1+1), and ammonia water + acetonitrile + methanol (1+1+1) on different feeds (chicken compound feed, chicken concentrated feed, and chicken compound premixed feed). Bacitracin standard solution (BTC), bacitracin zinc standard solution (BZ), and methylene salicylate bacitracin technical solution (BMD) were added for recovery, ensuring an actual bacitracin concentration of 1.0 mg / kg. The recovery effects of different ammoniated extracts are compared in the following figure. Figure 4 As shown in the attached figure.
[0114] The results showed that 5% ammonia water had poor extraction efficiency for concentrated and premixed feeds. For both premixed and compound feeds, the extraction efficiency of 5% ammoniated methanol and 10% ammonia water + methanol (1+1) extracts was lower than the other two extracts when bacitracin was added. The extraction efficiency of concentrated feed indicated that 15% ammonia water + methanol + acetonitrile (1+1+1) as the extractant yielded the best extraction efficiency for all different standard solutions. Under these conditions, the extraction efficiency of both compound and premixed feeds was higher than 80%.
[0115] c. The extraction efficiency of ammonia concentration in the extract was investigated for different feeds (chicken compound feed, chicken concentrated feed, and chicken compound premixed feed). Bacitracin standard solution (BTC), bacitracin zinc standard solution (BZ), and methylene salicylate bacitracin technical solution (BMD) were added for recovery, ensuring an actual bacitracin concentration of 1.0 mg / kg. The recovery efficiency of different ammonia concentrations in the extract is compared in the following figure. Figure 5 As shown in the attached figure.
[0116] The results showed that the concentration of ammonia water had a significant impact on the extraction and recovery efficiency of bacitracin and bacitracin preparations, especially bacitracin. When the ammonia water concentration increased to 12%, the extraction and recovery efficiency of the three standard solutions was greater than 80%, which was not significantly different from the recovery efficiency of the 15% ammonia water + methanol + acetonitrile (1+1+1) extract. Therefore, 12%-15% ammonia water + methanol + acetonitrile (1+1+1) was selected as the extraction solvent.
[0117] Example 6
[0118] Optimization of sample purification conditions
[0119] Because the extract contains a high amount of organic solvent, it cannot be directly purified using a solid-phase extraction column. Therefore, this invention uses 5 mL of the extract, diluted with 10 mL of EDTA solution, before loading. Since bacitracin zinc and the premixed feed contain metal ions, these ions are excessively retained in the solid-phase extraction column and are difficult to elute. Methylene salicylic acid bacitracin easily forms flocculent precipitates in acidic solutions; therefore, the dilution solution before column loading was determined to be EDTA solution (pH 7.0).
[0120] To obtain a cleaner sample solution, this invention employs QuEChERS and solid-phase extraction (SPE) columns for purification. The purification effect and recovery were tested using QuEChERS (PSA adsorbent specification 200 mg) and solid-phase extraction methods (Prime HLB, WCX, C18, and Agilent EMR columns).
[0121] The results showed that bacitracin was partially adsorbed in both EMR and Prime HLB purification columns, but flowed directly through the WCX column without retention, while retention was too strong and elution was difficult in the HLB column. The PSA adsorbent purification method was not suitable for subsequent nitrogen drying due to the 33% water content in the extract. However, the addition of bacitracin and methylene salicylate bacitracin standard solutions to the C18 column met the purification requirements.
