Introduction
Evaluation of food products' safety lies in determination of toxic substances (Yakubchak et al., 2018) and residues of veterinary drugs used in the process of productive animal breeding. Avermectins (AVM) are the veterinary drugs widely used in animal and cattle breeding for prevention and treatment of diseases caused by endo- and ectoparasites. Avermectins are the waste products of Streptomyces avermitiiis fungi. It's difficult to clearly classify them and relate solely to chemical or biological group of compounds with neurotoxic activity in organism of human. After getting to the body of invertebrates by contact or through the intestines, they activate l-glutamine and gamma-Aminobutyric acid in the peripheral nervous system with the same regulator-receptor as Acetylcholinesterase for Acetylcholine (Tengteng et al., 2019). The most frequently used and permitted veterinary medications for cattle treatment are: Abamectin (ABA), Doramectin (DORA), Ivermectin (IVER), Eprinomectin (EPRI), and Moxidectin (MOXI) (Dupuy et al., 2001; He et al., 2005; Baoliang et al., 2006; Durden et al., 2007).
As any toxic substances, avermectins can have negative effect on environment (Voitsitskiy et al., 2019; Lumaret et al., 2012), health of productive animals (Kose et al., 2016) and people (Miyajima et al., 2016) - after getting to the body together with food products of animal origin, including milk. For this reason, European Union countries have regulatory acts for usage and permitted residual content of avermectins in products of animal origin (Codex Alimentarius, 2014; Commission Regulation, 2009). According to European regulations, MRL (Maximum Residue Limit) in milk was established only for Eprinomectin (20 pg/kg) and for Moxidectin
(40 pg/kg) (Wu et al., 2001). Codex Alimentarius (International food standards) (Codex Alimentarius, 2014) sets the following MRLs for milk: Doramectin - 15 pg/kg, Ivermectin - 10 pg/kg; there are no regulatory restrictions for Abamectin. To determine the residual content of avermectins in food and animal tissues, a number of techniques with a different sensitivity range was proposed (He et al., 2005; Wu et al., 2001). The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is used to determine the residual content of avermectins in livestock products. This method is rather convenient for samples screening, for it does not involve complex sample preparation and equipment. However, it also has some disadvantages. As seen from the above, the test systems are designed exclusively for the individual matrices (eggs, muscles, milk) and do not cover the entire list of existing avermectins. There is another method of detecting avermectins' residues in biological samples, which involves the usage of immunoaffinity columns (Wu et al., 2001) for samples preparation. Its principle also lies in formation of antigen-antibody complex. Analytical method of analysis by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The residues of avermectins in biological matrices are usually determined using solid phase extraction and liquid chromatography with a fluorescence detector (He et al., 2005; Kaufmann et al., 2014; Danaher et al., 2006; Giannetti et al., 2011; de Souza Santos Cheibub et al., 2019), as well as liquid chromatography combined with tandem mass spectrometry (Huang et al., 2014; Ortiz et al., 2017; Manjusha R. Jadhav et al., 2019; Yashpal et al., 2018; Sheridan and Desjardins, 2006).
The ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry method (UHPLC-MS/MS) is a confirmatory method for detecting the level of avermectins in animal tissues and milk. It has higher sensitivity and encompasses wide range of analytes. The residual content of all avermectins in animal products can be determined with the help of UHPLC-MS/MS (Nurullah Ozdemir and Tahir Kahraman, 2016; Durden, 2006). Some methods developed for ultra high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometers are highly costly, especially those that are designed to use solid-phase columns for better cleaning of the supernatant.
The objective of this study was the modification and validation of UHPLC-MS/MS method applicable for determination of avermectins' residues in milk on the level of the method's detection limit, since there is MRL regulation for two substances: moxidecin - 40 pg/kg and epinomectin - 20 pg/kg. Samples are typically extracted using organic solvent and cleaned up by the method of liquid-liquid extraction (LLE), which makes it more affordable, faster and more sensitive.
Materials and Methods
The residual quantity of avermectins were detected by liquid chromatograph ACQUITY UPLC H-Class using a triple-quadrupole mass spectrometer Waters XEVO TQ-S micro (USA, Durham, NC) with reverse phase analytical column ACQUITY UPLC BEH C18 (1.7 pm, 100 mm x 2 x 2.1 mm).
During the preparation of milk samples the following equipment was used: Eppendorf 5810 R Centrifuge (Germany, Gamburg) with maximum acceleration of 140M00 rpm, Liebisch Labortechnik (Germany, Bielefeld) samples concentrator in the nitrogen current with the heating capacity up to 130°C, Stuart Vortex mixer SA8 (UK, Staffordshire) laboratory vortex with the rotation capacity of 2500 rpm, Stuart Tube Rotator SB3 (UK, Staffordshire) orbital shaker with the revolving capacity of 40 rpm, IKA T 25 digital ULTRA-TURRAX (Germany, Staufen) dispersant, designed for the volumes from 1 to 2000 ml with a range of rotational frequencies from 3000 to 25 000 rpm.
QuEChERS method was applied for analysis of residual amounts of avermectins in foods. Reagents from Sigma-Aldrich (Germany) were used to prepare samples and conduct the analysis. The study materials that included samples of raw milk were tested additionally to ensure they did not contain ivermectin residues. The tests were conducted using the method of high-performance liquid chromatography of mass spectrometry. During the study we used the following certified substances: Abamectin, Doramectin, Eprinomectin, Ivermectin and Moxidectin, produced by Sigma Chemical Co. (St. Louis, MO. USA).
To determine CCa depending on the MRL and the limits of detection, the control samples were enriched with standard solutions. Evaluation of the method was carried out at the MRL levels of 0; 1; 1.5 and 2.
The main standard solutions at the concentration of 1 mg/ml of the listed ivermectins were prepared by dissolving in 1 ml of dimethyl sulfoxide and 9 ml of acetonitrile.
The working standard solutions of each ivermectin and the complex standard solution of all ivermectins were prepared by two-stage dilution of the main standard solutions: the first stage -acetonitrile (to the concentration of 10 pg/ml), the second stage -0.1% solution of formic acid in water (to the concentration of 100 ng/ml).
Quantitative determination of mass concentration of avermectins in raw milk was done using an external standard method with pre-calibration of the chromatograph by calibration solutions using the matrix matched standards (MMS). The MMS are based on the milk sample with working solutions of avermectins added to the sample in different concentrations for building a linear calibration curve. Avermectins were identified accordingly to the retention time, the presence of the corresponding ions and their intensity ratios. To determine the content of avermectins in solution were used UHPLC-MS/MS method.
The sample was prepared according to the following scheme: selected milk sample was homogenised in a volume of 50 ml with the aid of the IKA T 25 digital ULTRA-TURRAX dispersant, then degreased by centrifugation at 4500 rpm and 4°C for 10 minutes, a mixture of standard solutions was added to 10 g of milk. After shaking, 10 ml of acetonitrile were added for extraction. After homogenizing the test sample for 30 seconds1 g of sodium chloride and 4 g of magnesium sulfate were introduced into the sample using the dispersant, followed by manual shaking for 1 min. Then centrifugation was performed within 10 minutes at radial acceleration of 4000 rpm. After centrifuging the sample, the supernatant was taken up in a polypropylene tube in which 1.5 g of magnesium sulfate and 0.5 g of octadecyl-modified silica gel (C18) were previously added and mixed in vortex for 30 s. After this, the sample was centrifuged at 4500 rpm and 4°C for 10 minutes, the supernatant layer was taken in a 15 ml test tube, in which 250 pl of dimethyl sulfoxide was pre-introduced, and mixed in vortex for 30 s and the acetonitrile layer was evaporated under a stream of nitrogen at a temperature of 50°C. The remained after evaporation dimethyl sulfoxide was put to the vial for injection through the syringe filter (0.2 pm 13 mm Acrodisc Syringe Filter GHR, USA, Milford). The study of the content of avermectins in raw milk was performed on a triple quadrupole mass spectrometer Waters XEVO TQ-S micro (USA). The voltage of the electric spray was set at the level of 3.0 kW for positive mode. Desolvation and source temperatures were set at 450 and 150°C, respectively. The drying gas was nitrogen with a flow of 900 L/hr, the collision gas - argon. Chromatography of the samples was carried out in gradient mode, a system of 0.1% solution of formic acid in water (A)/acetonitrile (B), and flow rate of 0.6 ml/min that was changed gradually, depending on the time of the procedure: 0 - 0.5 min - 100% A; 1 - 3 min - 50% A; 3.1 - 10 min - 10% A, 10.1 - 13 min -100% A. The temperature of the chromatographic column was set at 40°C. The sample injection mode was automatic; the volume of injection was 10 pL. Data scan parameters are shown in Table 1.

The confirmatory method was validated in accordance with European Commission Decision 2002/657/EC (Commission Decision,
2002). During the validation process, the following parameters were set: specificity, selectivity, accuracy, linearity, internal laboratory reproducibility, recovery, decision limit (CCa) and detection ability (CCP). All these data were obtained using the Interval Software of quo data GmbH (Germany).
CCa is an important indicator for assessing the validity of confirmatory methods, and CCP - for screening methods. CCa is the limit of the solution, beyond which one can make conclusion with the probability of error a, that the sample is inappropriate. CCP is the smallest content of the test substance that can be detected, identified or quantified in a sample with probability of error p. All these parameters were determined during applicability evaluation of the milk control samples method (29 samples in total). The samples were pre-analyzed for the absence of target analyte. Enrichment with analyte was done at the levels: 0; 1; 1.5; 2 MRL (of validation level for 6 parallels each plus 5 calibration points) for the substances with MRL according to regulatory documents (Commission Decision, 2002). Substances for which the MRL was not regulated were validated at the detection limit with equidistant distances. The study has been conducted for 2 days by two operators. The accuracy of the method was estimated by counting the average deviation of the results obtained for each concentration. Extract was calculated by concentration of loaded with a certain amount of analyte control samples. CCa and CCP were determined according to the calibration curve constructed by enriching various concentrations of the matrix standard as described in ISO 11843 (Capability of detection, 2003).
The CCa and CCP parameters were calculated in accordance with the international standard ISO 11843-2 (Capability of detection,
2003). The analytical parameters of CCa and CCP were calculated using matrix calibration curves and standard deviations. The curves were constructed using a target analyte in correlation with its peak areas. The linearity was demonstrated for all 5 analytes by preparing a five-point matrix-matched calibration curve at concentration levels of 0, 5, 10, 20, 30 pg/kg for ivermectin, abamectin, doramectin, eprinomectin and 0, 10, 20, 40, 60 pg/kg for moxidectin. The majority of analytes has shown linear regression values greater than 0.98. According to Commission decision (Commission Decision, 2002), when validating analytical methods, the results are considered acceptable if the Cv (coefficient of variation) does not exceed the limits specified in Table 2 on different levels.

Results and Discussion
The validation was performed following the 2002/657/EC guidelines (Commission Decision, 2002). The following parameters were assessed: linearity, trueness, within-laboratory repeatability, within-laboratory reproducibility, decision limit (CCa) and detection capability (CCP). The study was conducted using the Inter VAL V.3.4.0.4 Quo data software (Germany) provided validation data for various ivermectins (Tables 3 and 4). The tables below show standard deviations in repeatability and reproducibility in pg and variation coefficients in % as well as recovery at different calibration levels (data obtained after software processing).

The result of an analysis shall be considered noncompliant if the decision limit of the confirmatory method for the analyte is exceeded. If a permitted limit has been established for a substance, the decision limit is the concentration above which it can be decided with a statistical certainty of 1 -a that the permitted limit has been truly exceeded. For substances listed in Group A of Annex I to Directive 96/23/EC, the a error shall be 1% or lower. For all other substances, the a error shall be 5% or lower (Commission Decision, 2002). It can be seen from Table 4, that in the analysis of samples of milk with a concentration of ivermectin from 10 to 30 pg/kg, recovery was from 98 to 110.0%. This rate is within the requirements of Commission Decision 2002/657/EC for ivermectin with the limits from 80 to 110% (Commission Decision, 2002). As for moxidectin, which was validated at the level of 40 pg/kg (in accordance with the established MRL for this indicator in raw milk) recovery was from 88.7 to 102.6% at concentrations levels from 20 to 60 pg/kg. Variation coefficient of reproducibility of the analysis results on the content of avermectins in raw milk was also within acceptable limits that should not exceed 23% (Table 2). At levels of interest 10-20 pg/kg this index was rather low for ivermectin (14.2%), abamectin (13.2%), doramectin (9.9%), eprinomectin (10.6%), and moxidectin with the concentration of 40 pg/kg (6.4%). According to Commission decision 657 of 2002 [24], this indicates sufficient precision of this method. The precision of the method was satisfactory for all analytes in both Rel. Sr, (3.3-16.1%) and Rel. SwR, studies (6.419.7%), as the CV did not exceed the maximum CV calculated by the Horwitz equation and two thirds of these values, respectively. From the data received, it can be concluded that all the results obtained after calculation of reproducibility and repeatability are within the permissible limits in accordance with EU decision 657/2002 at various levels of validation (Commission Decision, 2002). Validation of the method of determining the residual content of avermectins in raw milk indicates that the use of UHPLC-MS/MS allows obtaining highly accurate data.

The accredited domestic laboratories of veterinary medicine use mainly screening procedures for determination of safety indicators of raw food products of animal origin. At the same time, in case of receiving positive screening results, it is necessary to conduct the study in accredited laboratories using confirmatory methods, such as the method described (according to the decision of the EU 657/2002 - for the implementation of the National Plans of the State Monitoring of residual quantities of veterinary preparations and pollutants in the body of live animals, products of animal origin and feed, as well as food products under the control of the veterinary service). Within the National Plan of the State Monitoring, during 2016-2018, the Research Laboratory of the Chemical-Toxicological department of the State Scientific and Research Institute of Laboratory Diagnostics and Veterinary and Sanitary Expertise analyzed 412 samples of products of animal origin for the residual content of veterinary preparations. Measurements of residual content of ivermectin and abamectin in livers of animals were performed. Owing to the validated method, the expansion of the State Monitoring Plan is scheduled for 2020. And the expansion is not limited to the addition of a new matrix - raw milk, but also foresees adding more avermectines to the list, including doramectin, eprinomectin and moxidectin. We also carried out the research on 26 samples of raw milk received from milk producers in 2019. The results of the research showed that the remains of erprinomectin were found in the milk samples in quantities below CCa. Thus, the above listed results of research have shown that today in Ukraine there is the necessity of the State Monitoring and Control Plan of avermectin residues such as eprinomectin, doramectin and moxidectin.
Conclusion
During the study we assessed the applicability of UHPLC-MS/MS method, established the MS/MS detection parameters and determined its validation characteristics for the analysis of residual content of ivermectins in raw milk. This method is accurate, practical and universal. This is confirmed by the obtained ССа data: abamectin -12.56 pg/kg, doramectin -17.74 pg/kg, eprinomectin - 24.02 pg/kg, ivermectin - 12.53 pg/kg and moxidectin -44.69 pg/kg. Recovery for avermectins used for the method validation is 88.7-110%. These results meet the requirements of European Directives. The QuEChERS procedure for extraction of avermectins was modified in the laboratory. It involves simple procedure of samples' preparation and doesn't require any costly materials for solid-phase cleaning. These benefits provide economic efficiency, speed and high throughput capacity of the analysis of residual amounts of avermectins in food products, including raw milk. The developed and adopted for the routine use at the laboratories of veterinary medicine UHPLC-MS/MS method for detection residual amounts of avermectins could be used in animal breeding of the Ukraine.
