Abstract
The significance of drug residues in foods of animal origin has been aptly described by Munro and Morrison (1970). The authors concluded there was “a pressing need for studies on the amounts, nature, biological availability and toxicity to man of drug residues in edible animal products. Essential to the success of such studies is the availability of reliable methodology capable of determining the toxicologically significant concentrations of drugs and their metabolites.” Thus, it is of use to summarize the chemical methods available to measure veterinary drugs in foods. The short-comings in this area will also be pointed out and thereby provide a stimulus for further research.KeywordsChloral HydrateWithdrawal PeriodDrug ResidueDibutyltin DilaurateEdible TissueThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
