A simple analytical method for the quantitative analysis of fluoroquinolone group antibiotics, enrofloxacin (ENR) and ciprofloxacin (CIP) in soil was developed based on the mechanical extraction with vortex and ultrasonication and solid phase extraction followed by high pressure liquid chromatography-fluorescence detection (HPLC-FLD). Type of extraction solvents and number of extraction cycles were optimized during the method development. The most efficient extraction solvent was found as phosphate buffer at pH 3 in combination with 50% of organic modifier acetonitrile with the extraction cycle of four. Overall method was applied on three different types of soils, namely, sandy, loamy sand and sandy loam and recovery rates ranged between 71-100% for ENR and 61-89% for CIP depending on the portion of organic and clay content in soils. The analytical method was also used for the estimation of fluoroquinolone concentrations in manure amended agricultural soils sampled from the different parts of Turkey and enrofloxacin was detected in the concentration range of 0.013-0.204 mg/kg. In addition, sorption of fluoroquinolone antibiotics on all types of soils was investigated and the highest distribution coefficients (Kd and Kf) of fluoroquinolone compounds were obtained for loamy sand (Kd = 1.29 l/g and Kf = 0.66 for CIP; Kd = 0.97 l/g and Kf = 0.56 for ENR) with the highest organic carbon.
