Screening of 24 Synthetic Antimicrobial Compounds That

Remain in Meat

Synthetic antimicrobial agents are used as animal drugs and feed additives and they are known to remain in the body of farm animals. Residue
limits prescribing the safe ingestible amounts of such agents have been set so that people can safely eat meat and processed meat products.
Thanks to a pretreatment method* that minimizes the influence of impurities in meat (beef, pork, and chicken muscle), LC system enables
1
screening of 24 synthetic antimicrobial compounds, which are regulated in Japan, Europe, and other regions, remaining in meat.
*1: Consumables for pretreatment are not included in the package. They need to be provided by the customer.
Three Features
• Optimized pretreatment method and two detectors support screening of 24 synthetic antimicrobial compounds.
• Detects synthetic antimicrobial agents of the standard residual concentration with high sensitivity.
• Displays screening results immediately after analysis is finished.
