Veterinary drug residues in animal-derived foods: From analytical detection to intelligent and sustainable surveillance

Year: 2026
Type: review
Abstract: Veterinary drug residues in animal-derived foods remain a major challenge for food safety, public health, and international trade. This review examines residue control through the complementary roles of analytical technologies, digital tools and green analytical chemistry. Rapid screening can support local decisions, while liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry provides laboratory confirmation. Digital tools offer opportunities to connect analytical results with treatment records and product traceability, but their value depends on data quality, interoperability and validation. Solvent reduction and miniaturization should be assessed alongside energy use and material life cycles. The proposed farm-to-fork roadmap links these approaches with regulatory requirements and One Health priorities, emphasizing reliable measurements, coordinated data use and feasibility in resource-constrained settings.
