Detection of Antibiotic Residues in Fish and Prawns Collected from Fresh, Brackish Water and Marine Sources Using HPLC
Page No. : 46-48
ABSTRACT
The current study analyzed the occurrence of antibiotic residues quantitatively in fish and prawn samples collected from fresh water, brackish water and marine sources located in five districts of Andhra Pradesh, India using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Tetracyclines (oxytetracyclin and doxycycline), ciprofloxacin and sulphamethoxazole were targeted and analyzed using multi residue HPLC method. Out of 100 fish and prawn samples collected, none of the sample was positive for any one of the four antibiotic residues under study.Keywords: HPLC, Antibiotic residues, fish, prawns
