Liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry chromatograms of A – a blank animal urine sample (mixed bovine and porcine urine); B – a blank urine sample spiked with 17α/β-CLOS and CLAD at the individual CCα level; C – a blank urine sample spiked with 17α/β-CLOS and CLAD at MMPR=0.50 μg L−1; D – a compliant routine bovine urine sample; E – a compliant routine porcine urine sample; F – a compliant routine ovine urine sample; G – a compliant routine equine urine sample. Note: chromatograms show transitions used for quantification for each analyte according to Table 1
