Article Synopsis
- - Tetracyclines are antibiotics used in medicated feed for livestock to prevent diseases, but precise dosing is essential to avoid issues like antibiotic resistance and contamination of food.
- - A new analytical method using High-Performance Liquid Chromatography with Diode Array Detection (HPLC-DAD) was developed to measure levels of oxytetracycline, chlortetracycline, and doxycycline in these feeds.
- - This method was validated and applied to 103 samples from the Italian National Plan on animal feed, revealing nine instances of non-compliance in swine and fish feeds between 2021 and 2023.
