Determination of streptomycin residues in honey by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.

Streptomycin is an aminoglycoside antibiotic used in apiculture to protect bees against a variety of brood diseases. Brazilian authorities have included it in the National Regulatory Monitoring Program for honey production. A simple and reliable method using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry has been developed and validated for the determination of streptomycin in honey.

Validation of a high-performance liquid chromatographic method with UV detection for the determination of ethopabate residues in poultry liver.

Ethopabate is frequently used in the prophylaxis and treatment of coccidiosis in poultry. Residues of this drug in food present a potential risk to consumers. A simple, rapid, and sensitive column high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method with UV detection for determination of ethopabate in poultry liver is presented.
