Kurzbeschreibung
High levels of antibiotic residues are considered health risk in animals and humans. Chemical Analysis of Antibiotic Residues in Food covers every key aspect on chemical analysis of antibiotics residues in food, including sampling, analytical methods, validation, and quality control. It also includes discussions of antibiotic chemical properties, pharmacokinetics, distribution, and food safety regulations. The text's balanced organization between practical use and theory provides analysts, scientists, managers, and laboratories with a reference book for antibiotic residue analysis in food and/or drinking water.
An insightful exploration of the key aspects concerning the chemical analysis of antibiotic residues in food
The presence of excess residues from frequent antibiotic use in animals is not only illegal, but can pose serious health risks by contaminating products for human consumption such as meat and milk. Chemical Analysis of Antibiotic Residues in Food is a single-source reference for readers interested in the development of analytical methods for analyzing antibiotic residues in food. It covers themes that include quality assurance and quality control, antibiotic chemical properties, pharmacokinetics, metabolism, distribution, food safety regulations, and chemical analysis. In addition, the material presented includes background information valuable for understanding the choice of marker residue and target animal tissue to use for regulatory analysis. This comprehensive reference:
* Includes topics on general issues related to screening and confirmatory methods
* Presents updated information on food safety regulation based on routine screening and confirmatory methods, especially LC-MS
* Provides general guidance for method development, validation, and estimation of measurement uncertainty
Chemical Analysis of Antibiotic Residues in Food is written and organized with a balance between practical use and theory to provide laboratories with a solid and reliable reference on antibiotic residue analysis. Thorough coverage elicits the latest scientific findings to assist the ongoing efforts toward refining analytical methods for producing safe foods of animal origin.
