Abstract
Background: The increased use of cephalosporin antibiotics in the last few years as well as the detection of their residues in wastewater treatment plants and hospital wastewater poses a risk for infiltration of their residues into environmental water samples.
Objective: A simplified, sensitive, and convenient solid-phase extraction (SPE) procedure coupled with either HPLC or fast HPLC methods with diode array detection was developed and validated to screen the residues of six different cephalosporin antibiotics: cefoperazone, cefipime, ceftazedime, ceftriaxone, cefdinir, and cefotaxime, along with amoxicillin, levofloxacin, and ciprofloxacin in water samples.
Methods: An HPLC-diode array detector (HPLC-DAD) method and a fast HPLC method, based on a core-shell stationary phase, were developed for the fast screening of the antibiotic compounds. In addition, the SPE step was optimized to enable the extraction of the studied drugs with high accuracy of the recovered amounts of residues.
Results: The method sensitivity was enhanced by the coupling of SPE with HPLC-DAD and fast HPLC to achieve low LODs; from 0.2 to 3.8 ng/mL and from 0.65 to 12.2 ng/mL, respectively. The developed methods were augmented by LC-MS/MS determination for confirmation of identity and quantity of any positively identified sample. The method was applied to the analysis of water samples collected from a rural site. In Addition, an example application of cleaning validation of cefotaxime-contaminated stainless-steel surfaces was provided.
Conclusion: The method's simplicity and high sensitivity encourage its application in monitoring of antibiotic residues in different types of water samples such as environmental samples and samples from cleaning validation activities.
Highlights: HPLC-DAD and fast HPLC methods were developed for separation of nine different antibiotics. The combination with the SPE procedure achieved low detection limits; from 0.2 to 3.8 ng/mL for SPE-HPLC-DAD and from 0.65 to 12.2 ng/mL for SPE-fast HPLC.
