1 st WorkshopXIII International Feed Technology Symposiumbroilers. Development <strong>of</strong> methods <strong>of</strong> determining <strong>and</strong> mastering existing analyticalprocedures are <strong>of</strong> great importance for producers <strong>of</strong> broilers, pharmaceuticals <strong>and</strong> feedfor poultry producers. Manufacturers <strong>of</strong> broilers can get testing type <strong>and</strong> content <strong>of</strong>coccidiostatic in poultry feed. The existence <strong>of</strong> reliable methods <strong>of</strong> determining the drugduring manufacturing, premixes or solutions, <strong>and</strong> stability <strong>of</strong> the product. Coccidiostaticapplication is rarely applied with the most important form <strong>of</strong> containment vaccinationcoccidiosis especially in raising broilers for meat production. Since a large number <strong>of</strong>anticoccidial preparations used in the prevention <strong>of</strong> coccidiosis we chose ionophorecoccidiostatic – salinomycin. Salinomycin, except for prophylaxis, as anticoccidialpreparations is applied as a growth promoter [4, 5]. To determine the content <strong>of</strong>salinomycin in samples <strong>of</strong> poultry feed before they primarily used microbiologicalmethods [9]. Spectrophotometric methods for determination salinomycin <strong>and</strong> otherionophore coccidiostatics include spectrophotometric measurement characteristics in thevisible <strong>and</strong> UV region. The visible area (colorimetry) [12] consists in the reaction <strong>of</strong>salinomycin solution <strong>and</strong> methanolic solution <strong>of</strong> vanilin with measuring the absorbance<strong>of</strong> mixture at 520 nm. Thin layer chromatography is one <strong>of</strong> the most applied techniquefor separation <strong>and</strong> identification <strong>of</strong> substances due to their simplicity <strong>and</strong> selectivity indetermining [1, 7, 14]. High performance liquid chromatography is the method <strong>of</strong> choicefor determining salynomicin <strong>and</strong> other ionophore coccidiostatics in biological samples,allows for quantification with the increasing sensitivity <strong>and</strong> reducing the lower detectionlimit [2, 6, 15]. Direct performance liquid chromatography is possible only in case <strong>of</strong>lasalocid with the application <strong>of</strong> fluorescent detectors [13]. Lasalocid, alone among thecarboxylic acid ionophores, has a fluorescent chromophore. All <strong>of</strong> the HPLC-basedassays that have been developed to determine the other carboxylic acid ionophores intissue require derivatisation to introduce a suitable chromophore. Salynomicin <strong>and</strong> otherionophore coccidiostatics not have chromophore or luminophore groups, which allowUV or fluorescent detection, <strong>and</strong> due to their thermal degradability, impossible the use <strong>of</strong>gas chromatography, resorting to post-column derivatisation (NSD-method) in order toprepare derivatives with dansylhidrazin [6] <strong>and</strong> pyridinium dichromat derivatisingreagens [8]. Frequently described is still NSD-method with vanillin reagent [2]. Sinceother methods for determination salynomicin <strong>and</strong> other ionophores shoud be notedenzyme-immuno (ELISA) method [16]. In general, the ELISA procedures developed todetect ionophore residues were significantly more sensitive compared with the earlierTLC-bioatography based sreening assays. Detection limit <strong>of</strong> this method is 0,2 ng/gsample.MATERIAL AND METHODSPreparation <strong>of</strong> samplesThe extraction efficiency <strong>and</strong> recovery <strong>of</strong> applied spectrophotometric <strong>and</strong> liquidchromatography method for the determination <strong>of</strong> salinomycin content were studied bythe st<strong>and</strong>ard addition method.
