Abstract: Gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC/MS) was developed for the simultaneous determination of triclosan (TCS) and methyl-triclosan (MTCS) in fish samples. Parameters affecting both derivatization and clean-up procedures were studied. After extracting with hexane and actone (Vhexane∶Vactone=1∶1), cleaning-up with gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and silica gel packed column, the residues were derivatized with acetic anhydride and analyzed by GC/MS. Under the optimal conditions, the linear range was 5~500 pg/μL for TCS and 2~500 pg/μL for MTCS. The correlation coefficient R was above 0.99 for the analytes, with the limit of detection (LOD) 1.3 and 0.8 pg/μL, respectively. Good recoveries (83%~89% for TCS and 85%~98% for MTCS) were achieved in the spiking experiments. The established method was successfully applied to determine this analytes in real fish samples.
