Abstract

This method can be used to monitor Spiramycin, a macrolide antibiotic, in pork.

Introduction

World health organizations are concerned about the antibiotics and antibacterials levels in food. This method can be used to monitor Spiramycin, a macrolide antibiotic, in pork.

Experimental

Pretreatment

  1. Weigh 5 g of sample into 25 mL of water. Homogenize.
  2. Centrifuge at 3000 rpm for 10 minutes.
  3. Collect supernatant.
  4. Re-extract pellet with 15 mL 1.2% metaphosphoric acid/ methanol (50:50, v/v).
  5. Vortex.
  6. Centrifuge at 3000 rpm for 10 minutes. Collect supernatant.
  7. Combine both supernatants.
  8. Filter sample using glass fiber filter.
