Large-pore covalent organic framework as solid phase extraction absorbentforefficientdetermination of polypeptide antibiotics in animal-derived foods.

The precise determination of polypeptide antibiotics (PPTs) in foods has been always challenging because of the interference of various endogenous peptides in complex matrix. Herin, a novel large-pore covalent organic framework (TABPT-SPDA-COF) with accessible pore size of 7.9 nm was synthesized as a solid phase extraction (SPE) absorbent for efficiently enriching four PPTs existed in foods originating from animals. The parameters of SPE process were systematically optimized. Subsequently, four PPTs were determined by UHPLC-MS/MS. Under the optimal conditions, TABPT-SPDA-COF shows outstanding enrichment capacity for PPTs in contrast to commercial absorbents ascribed to size selectivity and multiple interaction effects. The method exhibits excellent linear range (0.005-100 ng mL ^-1 ), satisfactory limits of detection (0.1 pg mL ^-1 ) as well as relative recoveries (86.2-116 %). This work offers a practicable platform to monitor trace PPTs from complex animal-derived foodstuffs.
