Development And Validation Of Liquid Chromatography Tandem Mass Spectrometry (Lc-Ms/Ms) Methods For The Analysis Of Veterinary Drugs In Various Biological And Feed Matrices Utilizing Efficient Extraction Protocols, Mark Cronly
Doctoral
The transfer of farming practices from low intensity farming systems for livestock production to commercial enterprises which employ intensive practices has resulted in the use of veterinary drugs becoming a critical component of food production. Resulting residues of veterinary drugs occurring in food of animal origin may give rise to potential health risks to consumers. The aim of this research is the development of analytical methods capable of screening and confirming increased number of these residues in more target matrices by Liquid Chromatography Tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Its focus is the analysis of nitroimidazole residues in food of animal origin …
