EFFECT OF EXTRACTING SOLVENT VOLUME ON RECOVERY RATE OF TWO VETERINARY ANTIBIOTICS ADDED TO SWINE MANURE
Abstract
Land application of swine manure can increase antibiotic concentra tions in agricultural soils. It is thus important to develop labor atory methods for antibiotics in manures and soils. The objective of this study was to examine the effect of volume of Na 2EDTA– McIlvaine’s buffer (c itric acid and Na 2HPO4) solution on recovery of oxytetracycline (OTC) and chlortetracycline (CTC) added to fresh swine manur e. Antibiotics were mixed with manure at a single rate of 20 mg /L. Six treatments (8, 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 ml) of extracting agents were used as 0.2 M Na 2EDTA + 0.2 M citric acid + 0.4 M Na2HPO4 solution to extract CTC and OTC fr om swine manure compost. Antibiotics concentration in manure extracts was analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection. Co mpared with control (8 ml), the highest rate (48 ml) of Na 2EDTA-McIlvaine’s buffer solution increased the extraction recovery of CTC and CTO by a factor of 1.8 and 1.4, respectively. There was lesser recovery of CTC than OTC. At the levels of 8 and 48 ml of extracting solution mean recovery rates were 59.7±14.2 and 81.8±16.0 % for OTC, and 36.1±12.1 and 65.7±0.1% for CTC, respectively. The concentration of CTC and OTC in fresh swine manure compost must account for a recovery factor that depended on volume of extracting solution.
