Summary:
A chemical analysis of veterinary antimicrobials in raw pork meat samples was conducted in Cyprus, by means of tandem LC–MS/MS confirmatory method. Maximum Residue Limits were investigated in respect to this results. A dietary exposure assessment was conducted on veterinary antimicrobial residues, found in raw pork meat among adults, children and adolescents in Cyprus. The study was based on the results of the occurrence of 45 residual antibiotics in raw pork meat samples in Cyprus between 2012 and 2017 in combination with data on the consumption of pork meat on specific population units. Estimated daily intake (EDI) values compared to the Acceptable daily intake (ADI), were calculated.
