Abstract: A method for the determination of 25 β-receptor agonist residues in milk and dairy products was established based on ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Samples were enzymatically hydrolyzed in 0.2 mol/L ammonium acetate solution at pH 5.2 for 16 h. After the removal of fat and protein through glass fiber filter paper, the filtrate was purified by solid phase extraction (SPE) using a PRiME MCX solid phase extraction column, and separated on a Waters BEH C18 column (100 mm × 2.1 mm, 1.7 μm) by gradient elution using a mobile phase composed of acetonitrile and 0.1% formic acid in water. Mass spectrometry was performed using an electrospray ionization source (ESI) in the positive ion mode with multiple reaction monitoring (MRM), and quantitative determination was performed using the internal standard method. The proposed method showed good linearity for all analytes in the concentration range of 0.2–50.0 ng/mL with coefficients of determination (R2) greater than 0.996; the recoveries ranged from 80.3% to 106.2% with relative standard deviations (RSDs) of 0.6%–8.5% (n = 6). The limits of detection (LOD) were 0.05–0.10 μg/kg, and the limits of quantification (LOQ) were 0.10–0.20 μg/kg. This method is simple, efficient and suitable for the determination of the 25 β-receptor agonist residues in milk and dairy products.
