Use of antibiotics by the poultry industry has the potential to produce residues in edible tissues. In order to protect consumers, the U.S. federal government performs extensive evaluations to quantify residues in edible tissues to ensure that concentrations do not exceed the tolerance level. However, in the case of muscle tissue, the regulatory process does not differentiate between different edible muscle types in poultry. Previous studies performed by our laboratory determined higher fluoroquinolone residue concentrations in breast versus thigh muscle. Thus, if thigh tissues were used for residue monitoring, it would not accurately depict the higher concentrations. It is also possible that residue concentrations vary within tissues. To evaluate this possibility, fluoroquinolone antibiotic residues were determined for different breast sections. One hundred sixty chickens were randomly divided into four groups and dosed at 33 days of age with the fluoroquinolone antibiotic, enrofloxacin (Baytril), at either 25 ppm for 3 days, 25 ppm for 7 days, 50 ppm for 3 days, or 50 ppm for 7 days. Breast fillets were collected from each bird (n = 5 birds per day per group) during the dosing and withdrawal period. Each breast was divided into four sections (upper left, upper right, lower left, and lower right) that were analyzed as individual samples for determination of fluoroquinolone concentration. Our results indicated no significant difference (P > 0.05) in the levels of enrofloxacin residues between breast sections during the dosing or withdrawal periods. Consequently, samples can be collected from any breast section to evaluate fluoroquinolone residue concentrations during the regulatory monitoring process.

abstract A simple, sensitive, and rapid method for simultaneous determination of residues of flumequine and its microbiologically active metabolite 7-hydroxyflumequine in 100 mg sheep edible tissues (muscle, liver, kidney, and fat) by liquid chromatography is reported. After liquid-liquid cleanup with ethyl acetate, tissue extracts were injected onto a Select B column. The 2 compounds were determined by ultraviolet and fluorimetric detection. The method was repeatable and reproducible for flumequine and 7-hydroxyflumequine in muscle, liver, kidney, and fat, with limits of detection below 2 and 3 μg/kg for flumequine and 7-hydroxyflumequine, respectively. Mean recoveries for flumequine were 90 ± 7, 82 ± 7,89 ± 5, and 82 ± 6% in muscle, liver, kidney, and fat, respectively. Mean recoveries for 7-hydroxyflumequine were 91 ± 2, 90 ± 4, 86 ± 3, and 84 ± 4% in muscle, liver, kidney, and fat, respectively.

Abstract A high pressure liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method has been developed for determination of sulfamethazine residues in pork liver, kidney, muscle, and fat. The sample was extracted with acetone- chloroform, concentrated in the presence of dilute HC1, and partitioned between dilute HC1 and hexane. The acid solution was washed with methylene chloride and then buffered with trisodium citrate and sodium hydroxide to pH 5.8-5.9. Sulfamethazine was extracted from the aqueous mixture with methylene chloride, concentrated, dissolved in buffer, and eluted from XAD-2 resin with methanol. Sulfamethazine was reliably quantitated at 0.1 ppm by HPLC on a Zorbax ODS column with detection at 254 nm with no interference from tissues or reagents. The average recovery from the edible tissues, i.e., liver, muscle, kidney, and fat, fortified at 0.1-0.4 ppm was 85.6 ± 3.7%.
