MIP-based extraction techniques for the determination of antibiotic residues in edible meat samples: Design, performance & recent developments

Misusing or overusing antibiotics in livestock and poultry can result the accumulation of mentioned drugs animal meat. Consequently, its consumption by humans therefore increasing risks antibiotic resistance emergences. In order to decrease these risks, constant monitoring meat samples is necessary. Therefore, concentration needs be lower than maximum residue limits. As a complex matrix, sample preparation mandatory step analysis. Molecularly imprinted polymers are one extensively studied tools this aspect. These exhibited great affinity selectivity towards target compound/s. work, collection studies from 2017 2021 reviewed. Inclusion criteria were formed around papers incorporating molecularly as means extraction detection samples. This review represents different synthesis methods their applications determination It also demonstrates advantages, gaps weakness systems food chemistry field. act guide for design development novel polymer-based analytical applications. Throughout review, residues using conventional MIP based techniques discussed, coupling MIPs with other techniques, Limit quantification recovery rates will improve significantly, which results designing platforms analysis higher efficacy.
