Antibiotics enter the environment through various routes such as application of antibiotic pesticides, soil, and water bodies, and are then absorbed by plant tissues to varying degrees and enter the human body through the food chain, while antibiotic residues in plant-derived foods can also pose a threat to human health. To assess the health risk of antibiotic exposure to humans, Lifeasible has developed a rapid screening and confirmatory method for the detection of antibiotic residues in plant samples.

What We Offer

• Extraction of antibiotics from foods of plant origin

Lifeasible mainly uses the solvent extraction method, supplemented by ultrasound and oscillation, to complete the extraction quickly and efficiently.

• Purification method for antibiotic residue detection in plant-derived foods

Lifeasible mainly uses liquid-liquid extraction (LLE), solid-phase extraction (SPE), QuEChERS, dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) and matrix solid-phase dispersion (MSPD).

• Detection of antibiotics in foods of plant origin

Lifeasible focuses on the determination of antibiotics in plant-derived foods using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). We also offer an enzyme-linked immunoassay assay (ELISA).

Sample Requirement

• Botanical material, >10 g

*The experimental samples will not be returned, please back them up by yourself. Before sampling, it is necessary to set up the control group and the experimental group, and each group is suggested to repeat more than 3 times.

*Quick-frozen preservation with liquid nitrogen can minimize the leakage time of plant samples at room temperature.

*There is no restriction on plant varieties. For varieties with special requirements or rare varieties, please contact our staff for more information.

We Do Better

Lifeasible is a leading integrated phytotechnology company that not only has extensive experience in plant antibiotic detection and analysis but has been working to solve a variety of problems in plant antibiotic-related research and working with researchers worldwide to find the next research breakthrough.

*If your organization requires the signing of a confidentiality agreement, please contact us by email.

For research use only, not intended for any clinical use.
