Stock standard solutions (1000 μg mL -1 ) for the six antibiotics were prepared every month by dissolving each compound in methanol and stored at 4 o C for further use. Working solutions were diluted with Milli-Q ultrapure water (Millipore, Bedford, MA, USA) and methanol (v/v = 50:50) to prepare a secondary mixed stock solution of 10 μg mL -1 . All of the working solutions were prepared every week and stored at 4 o C for further use.
summer of 2017. The seawater sample was filtered through a 0.45-μm membrane filter and stored at -4 o C until analysis. The sediment sample was air-dried at room temperature before grinding and sieving. Fish, shrimp, shellfish, and squid were purchased from local fishing boats (Weifang, China) and stored at -20 o C after grinding (JX-FSTPRP-24 grinder, Shanghai, China).
