An ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry ( UPLC-MS/MS) method was developed for the determination of 8 kinds of cephalosporins, cefoperazone, cefquinome, cefalonium, cefazolin, cefapirin, Ceftiofur, cefpirome and cefalexin, in edible parts of aquatic products. The samples were extracted with acetonitrile-water and cleaned up by multi-walled carbon nanotubes ( MwCNTs) SPE cartridge. All the target compounds were separated on an Acquity Xselect CSH C18 column with gradient elution by using acetonitrile and 0. 1% formic acid aqueous as eluent, and detected by UPLC-MS/MS under ESI+ ionization and MRM mode. Under optimized conditions, this method had a good linearity (R2≥0. 995) and the limits of quantification were in the range of 2-10 μg/kg ( S/N=10 ) . The recoveries of the method for the target compounds spiked at three different levels were 67. 3%-94. 2% with the relative standard deviations (RSDs) of 3. 3%-14%. The method had the characteristics of low cost, high accuracy and good precision, and could meet the requirements of cephalosporins determination.
