Rapid Test for Detecting Prohibited Antibiotics in Aquaculture

The use of prohibited antibiotics or chemicals in aquaculture raises significant public health concerns. The use of antibiotics or chemicals, such as malachite green, nitrofurans, fluoroquinolones, and gentian violet during various stages of aquaculture production can result in the presence of residues of the parent compound or its metabolites in the edible portion of the aquacultured seafood.

Consuming aquacultured products with antibiotic residues from fluoroquinolones and chloramphenicol may contribute to an increase of antimicrobial resistance to this “critically important” class of antibiotics in human pathogens. Furthermore, prolonged exposure to nitrofurans, malachite green, and gentian violet has been shown to have a carcinogenic affect with long-term exposure in lab animals.
