There is increasing awareness of food safety by the consumer with respect to antimicrobial resistance due to the discovery of new resistant strains of bacteria and others that are becoming increasingly resistant over time. As a result there is increasing pressure on laboratories responsible for food safety to monitor the use of these drugs and ensure the safety of food for human consumption. Legislation regarding the control of  antibiotic residues in live animals and animal products is given in Coun-cil Directive 96/23/EC. In the context of this directive, details for  methods and their performance criteria are described in Commission Decision 2002/657/EC. Residues are divided into two groups A and B for  the purposes of monitoring and defining the legislation relating to them.
 +
 +
 +
 +
Group A  refers to  substances  having an anabolic effect and unauthorised  substances while group B refers to  veterinary drugs and contaminants.  The aminoglycosides and macrolides are both listed under group B1 (antibacterial substances). The various sub-divisions of  these two groups are listed in  Council directive  96/23/EC. The EU Council regulation 2377/90 lays down the Community procedure  for the establishment of maximum residue limits (MRLs) of veterinary medicinal products in foodstuffs of animal origin.
 +
 +
 +
 +
Some aminoglycosides with established MRLs are shown in  Table 1 and some aminoglycosides with provisional MRLs are shown in Table 2. EU Council regulation 2377/90 also dictates the analytical methods that can be used for confirmatory analysis and these are listed in Table 3.

To  ensure that aminoglycosides are used only in  approved  situations  and  to control their  use  in meat-producing animals, targeted samples are taken at the slaughterhouse and screened for  the presence of residues. A positive screening result means that the sample must be subjected to  confirmatory analysis. This assay must adhere to Commission Decision 2002/657/EC whereby suitable confirmatory methods are based on a required number of identification points.  For  the identity of  group B compounds such as the aminoglycosides, a minimum of  three identification points are required. As  a consequence, methods that are based on chromatographic analysis followed by mass spectrometric detection are becoming the normal way of confirming identity and determining concentration.
