Determination of Amoxicillin and Lincomycin Incurred Residues in Salmon and Tilapia for Selection of FDA Method Trial Study Materials

Objective

Amoxicillin and lincomycin have been identified as having toxicological significanceby the CVM, NCTR, and the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and have been scheduled for incurred-residue FDA method trials. Methods of analysis have been developed and validated for amoxicillin in catfish and salmon and lincomycin in salmon. <OL> <LI> Validation of the above methods for incurred residues of amoxicillin in salmon and tilapia and lincomycin in salmon are needed. <LI> Documentation of incurred-residue confirmation methods by Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (LC/MS) are also needed for these regulatory methods.
