| Abstract | ||
| A total of 234 randomly selected milk samples from different sources (110, 50, 34 and 40 samples) from each of (market milk, collecting centers, bulk tank and UHT milk samples; respectively) were analyzed for the quinolones residues by rapid quinolones detection strip test. Results revealed that 17.3%, 14% and 20.6% of milk samples were positive for the presence of quinolones residues for market milk, collecting centers and bulk tank milk samples; respectively, while not detected in UHT milk samples. The positive milk samples were subjected to HPLC analysis for quantitative detection of ciprofloxacin residues, which were present in 11.8%, 8%, and 8.8% for market milk, collecting centers and bulk tank milk samples; respectively, with mean values of 17.37± 0.27, 18.02±0.7 and 17.79± 0.75 ppb; respectively. None of them had a concentration exceeded the maximum residual limit set by different international standards. Public health importance of ciprofloxacin residues was discussed | ||
