There is a growing demand for analytical techniques for the detection of a wide variety of residues from synthetic molecules in matrices such as soil, water, air and food. These techniques have to meet the requirements of speed and sensitivity as well as the ability to handle any matrix with minimal

✦ Synopsis
Abstract
A method for the determination and confirmation of methylene blue (MB) in aquatic products was developed. Residues of MB were extracted from homogenized tissues with acetonitrile/sodium acetate buffer solution, and simply cleaned up with dichloromethane liquid/liquid extraction. After concentration and dissolution, the sample solutions were cleaned up by the neutral alumina and weak cation‐exchange solid phase extraction (SPE) cartridge, prior to LC‐MS/MS analysis. MB was determined at 1.0–20 μg/kg in eel, toasted eel and shrimp, with a limit of quantification of 0.5 μg/kg. Recovery for MB was between 73.0% and 108.3%. This method is fast, exact and sensitive. It can be applied to determine MB in aquatic products.
