Antibiotics

Antibiotic reference standards for residue analysis in meat, seafood, milk, eggs and honey: quinolones, sulfonamides, tetracyclines, macrolides, beta-lactams, amphenicols and nitrofurans.

Vietnam is a major seafood exporter, so this range is closely tied to the testing requirements of the EU, Japanese and US markets — where many compounds are banned outright and detection limits are measured in µg/kg. Isotope-labelled standards are usually included for use as internal standards in LC-MS/MS. See also food reference standards.
