Extraction and GC/MS Analysis of Melamine From Dog Food using a Zebron ZB-5MSplus GC column

Abstract:

This application note describes a complete method to extract and analyze melamine from dog food by GC/MS. Using a liquid extraction, matrix interferences are removed from the dog food sample which was spiked at 100 μg/g. The clean sample was then analyzed by GC/MS using a specially deactivated Zebron ZB-5MSplus GC column, which provided excellent peak shape and separation of melamine and related compounds.
