However, misuse and abuse of these drugs can lead to residues in the edible tissues of animals. Due to the toxicity of aminoglycosides and the exposure of consumers to the emergence of drug resistance, new methods are being sought to determine aminoglycosides in food. The method presented in this manuscript describes the determination of twelve aminoglycosides (streptomycin, dihydrostreptomycin, spectinomycin, neomycin, gentamicin, hygromycin, paromomycin, kanamycin, tobramycin, amikacin, apramycin, and sisomycin) in thirteen matrices (muscle, kidney, liver, fat, sausages, shrimps, fish honey, milk, eggs, whey powder, sour cream, and curd). Aminoglycosides were isolated from samples with extraction buffer (10 mM NH4OOCH3, 0.4 mM Na2EDTA, 1% NaCl, 2% TCA). For the clean-up purpose, HLB cartridges were used. Analysis was performed using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS\/MS) with a Poroshell analytical column and a mobile phase of acetonitrile and heptafluorobutyric acid. The method was validated according to Commission Regulation (EU) 2021\/808 requirements. Good performance characteristics were obtained for recovery, linearity, precision, specificity, and decision limits (CC\u03b1). This simple and high-sensitivity method can determine multi-aminoglycosides in various food samples for confirmatory analysis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/molecules28124595","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,6,7]],"date-time":"2023-06-07T02:02:15Z","timestamp":1686103335000},"page":"4595","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":35,"title":["Analysis of Aminoglycoside Antibiotics: A Challenge in Food Control"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"28","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9520-3027","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ewelina","family":"Nowacka-Kozak","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology, National Veterinary Research Institute, Partyzant\u00f3w 57, 24-100 Pu\u0142awy, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anna","family":"Gajda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology, National Veterinary Research Institute, Partyzant\u00f3w 57, 24-100 Pu\u0142awy, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7463-5792","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ma\u0142gorzata","family":"Gbylik-Sikorska","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology, National Veterinary Research Institute, Partyzant\u00f3w 57, 24-100 Pu\u0142awy, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,6,7]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Wang, J., Macneil, J.D., and Kay, J.F.
