No certified reference materials were available to allow laboratories to demonstrate satisfactory performance of their analytical methods. Freeze-dried prawn reference materials MX012A and MX012B were prepared at the National Measurement Institute, Australia, from blank and contaminated prawn tissue. A high-accuracy, exact-matching isotope dilution mass spectrometry method was developed for the analysis of two nitrofuran metabolites in the prawn materials. Residues were extracted by acid hydrolysis and derivatisation with 2-nitrobenzaldehyde, extracts were purified by liquid-liquid extraction followed by solid-phase extraction, and instrumental analysis was by ultra-high-pressure liquid chromatography with electrospray tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-ESI-MSMS). The method was used to certify the reference materials for mass fraction of 3-amino-2-oxazolidinone (AOZ) and semicarbazide (SEM), including the preparation of detailed measurement uncertainty budgets. MX012A contains AOZ at (137.5±8.5) ng/g of freeze-dried material, and MX012B contains AOZ at (30.2±1.8) ng/g and SEM (fortified) at (70.3±3.1) ng/g. When reconstituted as directed on the certificate, the materials contain AOZ at (20.6±1.3) ng/g and (4.53±0.27) ng/g (MX012A and MX012B, respectively) and SEM at (10.5±0.5) ng/g (MX012B). The individual components contributing to the measurement uncertainty estimates were the mass fractions assigned to calibration standards, gravimetric mass measurements, precision of the analytical method, reproducibility, long-term storage stability of the material at −20°C, stability of the material during transportation, and potential bias due to extraction efficiency of the incurred analyte and matrix interference.
