Overview

Systematic review reports tetracycline residues reaching 479 µg/kg in eggs, highlighting the need for standardized liquid chromatography monitoring.

Key Points

  • To systematically assess the prevalence, residue concentrations, and analytical extraction and detection methods for tetracycline antibiotics in eggs.
  • Conducted a systematic database search using search terms covering multiple tetracycline classes (tetracycline, chlortetracycline, doxycycline, minocycline, tigecycline, oxytetracycline) and analytical residue detection in eggs.
  • Identified and extracted data from 16 manuscripts meeting predefined study inclusion criteria.
  • All 16 reviewed studies utilized liquid chromatography for residue identification, primarily using methanol or acetonitrile for sample preparation alongside EDTA-containing buffers.
  • Reported concentrations of tetracycline residues in eggs ranged from non-detectable (ND) levels up to 479 µg/kg.
