Determination of neomycin in animal tissues, using ion-pair liquid chromatography with fluorometric detection.
A liquid chromatographic (LC) method is described for the determination of neomycin in animal tissues. Tissues are homogenized in 0.2M potassium phosphate buffer (pH 8.0); the homogenate is centrifuged, and the supernate is heated to precipitate the protein. The heat-deproteinated extract is acidified to pH 3.5-4 and directly analyzed by LC. The LC method consists of an ion-pairing mobile phase, a reverse phase ODS column, post-column derivatization with o-phthalaldehyde reagent, and fluorometric detection. The LC method uses paromomycin as an internal standard, and separates neomycin from streptomycin or dihydrostreptomycin because they have different retention times. The LC column separates neomycin in 25 min; the detection limit is about 3.5 ng neomycin. The overall recovery of neomycin from kidney tissues spiked at 1-30 ppm was 96% with a 9.0% coefficient of variation. The method was also applied to muscle tissue.

Overview of physical-chemical methods for determining aminoglycoside antibiotics in tissues and fluids of food-producing animals.
A survey of literature is presented dealing with physical-chemical methods for the detection and quantitation of aminoglycoside antibiotics (gentamicin, streptomycin, dihydrostreptomycin, and neomycin) that are used in food-producing animals. Recent developments in cleanup and determinative procedures, particularly liquid chromatography, for these compounds in fluids and tissues are emphasized. Little research has been done on residues in tissues compared with other biological matrices. This review also covers the chemistry, general characteristics, tolerances, and withdrawal times for the approved uses of these antibiotics in animals that are used for food.

Review of chromatographic methods for chloramphenicol residues in milk, eggs, and tissues from food-producing animals.
Although chloramphenicol is not approved for use in food-producing animals in the United States, this broad spectrum antibiotic has been widely used to treat diseases in such animals including the lactating dairy cow. Extremely low ophthalmologic doses of chloramphenicol are known to cause aplastic anemia in humans. The residues in meat, milk, and eggs intended for human consumption cause particular public health concern because the bone marrow aplasia is not dose dependent. Furthermore, chloramphenicol, a known inhibitor of protein synthesis, also retards erythropoiesis, a condition that is dose dependent and may cause allergic hypersensitivity reactions. This paper is a review of sensitive methods that use gas, liquid, thin layer, and simple column chromatography as both determinative and cleanup steps for detecting and quantitating chloramphenicol in edible animal tissues, milk, and eggs.
