dc.description.abstract | In Vietnam, farmers use antibiotics for disease prevention and therapeutic
purposes. They also use antibiotics to promote animal growth. However, many
livestock farmers do not follow the veterinary prescription and supervision. It
may lead to the presence of residues in animal products and antimicrobial
resistance. This study was carried out to detect and quantify sulfadimidine,
chloramphenicol, tylosin and tetracycline in pork, kidney and liver samples by
using enzyme-linked immuno sorbent assay (ELISA).
Among 174 meat samples which were collected from 5 slaughterhouses, 16.6%
of samples contained sulfadimidine, 9.7% of samples contained tylosin and
39.09% samples had tetracycline while no samples contained chloramphenicol.
Among the four antibiotics, the percentage of exceeding minimum residue level
(MRL) samples was 13.7% for sulfadimidine and 2.29% for tylosin. Tetracycline
exceeding samples were not found.
