Abstract
- he extensive use of antibiotics in agriculture has led to the occurrence of residual drugs in different vegetables frequently consumed by humans. This could pose a potential threat to human health, not only because of the possible effects after ingestion but also because the transmission of antibiotic-resistant genes could occur. In this work, two accurate sample preparation procedures were developed and validated for the simultaneous analysis of sulfonamides (SAs) and tetracyclines (TCs) in four of the most widely consumed vegetables (lettuce, onion, tomato, and carrot) in Europe. The evaluated protocols were based on QuECHERS for extraction and subsequent clean-up by SPE (solid phase extraction) or dispersive SPE. Parameters affecting both extraction and clean-up were carefully evaluated and selected for accuracy of results and minimal matrix effect. Overall, apparent recoveries were above 70% for most of the target analytes with both analytical procedures, and adequate precision (RSD
