Detection of Six Zeranol Residues in Animal-derived Food by HPLC-MS/MS
Description
Zeranol is a non-steroidal estrogenic growth stimulator that is widely used in food-producing animals in many countries. A synthetic derivative of the mycotoxin zearalenone, zeranol is a potential endocrine disrupter that may have adverse effects on humans (birth defects and reproductive disorders) because of its hormone-like properties. The use of zeranol in the livestock industry may also cause secondary pollution and environmental contamination of drinking water and foods. We describe an effective LC-MS/MS method to detect six zeranol residues in animal-derived foods.| Market: | Food and Beverage |
