Electrochemical immunosensors have emerged as a highly sensitive and rapid technique for chemical contaminants detection in environmental monitoring, food safety and quality control. This review concentrates on recent advances made in detection and quantification of chemical contaminants such as pesticides and antibiotics residues with electrochemical immunosensors. In this paper, the preparati...

Data generated in the UK have indicated that pesticide residue levels can be highly variable between the individual fruit or vegetables from the same crop or lot in trade. Statistical experiments with these data showed that residues in composite samples, taken according to Codex recommendations, are unlikely to differ by more than a factor of 3-4 from the mean level in the lot. This was corrobo...

background: the presence of antibacterial drug residues in food caused many concerns for consumers. this study was designed to determine of antibacterial drug residues in commercial eggs distributed in urmia, iran.  methods: disc diffusion microbial inhibition test was performed using three media seeded with bacillus subtilis at different ph values (6, 7.2 or 8) and a fourth medium seeded with ...

antibacterial drugs used in animal might result in deposition of residues in meat, milk and eggs. the presence of antimicrobial residues in animal-originated food is critical problem in many countries over the years. because, drug residues might result in various health hazards, both actual incidence of reactions and potential hazards perceived by the public, the most countries assess residue o...

the objective of this study was to evaluate kinetics and the residual decline of tylosin in milk and plasma of lactating najdi ewes following single intramuscular injection of tylosin at the dose of 10 mg/kg. blood and milk samples were collected from the ewes before and at different time intervals after treatment. tylosin concentrations were determined by microbiological agar plate assay using...

Cilia were present in the earliest eukaryotic ancestor and underlie many biological processes ranging from cell motility and propulsion of extracellular fluids to sensory physiology. We investigated the contribution of the touch insensitive larva B (tilB) gene to cilia function in Drosophila melanogaster. Mutants of tilB exhibit dysfunction in sperm flagella and ciliated dendrites of chordotona...
