Comprehensive Guide to ISO 23161 Screening of Veterinary Drug Residues in Eggs Laboratory Testing Service Provided by Eurolab

ISO 23161 is an international standard that governs the screening of veterinary drug residues in eggs laboratory testing. This standard is developed and maintained by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), a non-governmental organization that brings together representatives from industries, governments, and other organizations to develop voluntary standards.

Legal and Regulatory Framework

The use of veterinary drugs in animal husbandry has become widespread, and as a result, there is a growing concern about the presence of these residues in eggs. To ensure public health and safety, many countries have implemented regulations to limit or prohibit the use of certain veterinary drugs in agriculture. For example, the European Union (EU) has established maximum residue limits (MRLs) for various veterinary drugs in eggs.

International and National Standards

The following standards apply to ISO 23161 Screening of veterinary drug residues in eggs testing:

  • ISO 23161:2018 - Screening of veterinary drug residues in eggs

  • EN 14081:2003 - Determination of the content of certain veterinary drug residues in eggs

  • TSE (Turkish Standards Institution) TS EN 14081:2003 - Determination of the content of certain veterinary drug residues in eggs

    • These standards provide guidelines for the sampling, preparation, and analysis of egg samples to detect veterinary drug residues.

    Standard Development Organizations

    ISO, ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials), EN, TSE, and other standard development organizations play a crucial role in developing and maintaining standards related to laboratory testing. These organizations ensure that standards are up-to-date, relevant, and aligned with industry needs.

    Evolution of Standards

    Standards evolve over time as new technologies, methods, and techniques become available. This ensures that laboratory tests remain accurate, reliable, and compliant with regulatory requirements.

    Standard Numbers and Scope

    The following standard numbers and their scope apply to ISO 23161 Screening of veterinary drug residues in eggs testing:

  • ISO 23161:2018 - Screening of veterinary drug residues in eggs (scope: Sampling, preparation, and analysis of egg samples)

  • EN 14081:2003 - Determination of the content of certain veterinary drug residues in eggs (scope: Determination of MRLs for various veterinary drugs)

    • Standard Compliance Requirements

    Compliance with standards is essential for laboratory testing to ensure accuracy, reliability, and regulatory compliance. Companies must demonstrate adherence to standards through internal quality control measures, documentation, and training.

    Step-by-Step Explanation of How the Test is Conducted

    1. Sample collection: Eggs are collected from farms or processing plants.

    2. Sampling preparation: Samples are prepared for analysis using standardized procedures.

    3. Extraction: Veterinary drug residues are extracted from egg samples using solvents and techniques.

    4. Separation: Residues are separated from other compounds using chromatography or other separation methods.

    5. Detection: Residues are detected using mass spectrometry, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), or other detection methods.

    Analytical Techniques

    Eurolab employs various analytical techniques to detect veterinary drug residues in eggs, including:

  • Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS)

  • Liquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS)

  • Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA)

    • Validation and Calibration

    Eurolabs analytical techniques are validated and calibrated regularly to ensure accuracy, reliability, and compliance with regulatory requirements.

    Reporting and Certification

    Test results are reported in accordance with EU regulations, providing certification of compliance or non-compliance.
