There were two key The accuracy of analysis for the residual drugs has been points in sample preparation. First, extraction was required worldwide in recent years. In Japan, the analytic performed with two solutions of different polarity. methodologies used by inspection institutes had to be validated Highly polar compounds were initially extracted until December 13, 2013 according to the notice issued by the with Na2EDTA-McIlvaine’s buffer (pH 7.0).

Pinacho 2,* 1 PhD Biosciences Program, Universidad de La Sabana, Chía 140013, Colombia; [email protected] 2 Therapeutical Evidence Group, Clinical Pharmacology, Universidad de La Sabana, Chía 140013, Colombia; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +57-1-8615555 (ext. 23309) Received: 21 August 2020; Accepted: 7 September 2020; Published: 25 September 2020 Abstract: Due to the high bacterial resistance to antibiotics (AB), it has become necessary to adjust the dose aimed at personalized medicine by means of therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM). TDM is a fundamental tool for measuring the concentration of drugs that have a limited or highly toxic dose in different body fluids, such as blood, plasma, serum, and urine, among others. Using different techniques that allow for the pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) analysis of the drug, TDM can reduce the risks inherent in treatment. Among these techniques, nanotechnology focused on biosensors, which are relevant due to their versatility, sensitivity, specificity, and low cost. They provide results in real time, using an element for biological recognition coupled to a signal transducer. This review describes recent advances in the quantification of AB using biosensors with a focus on TDM as a fundamental aspect of personalized medicine. Keywords: biosensors; therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM), antibiotic; personalized medicine 1. Introduction The discovery of antibiotics (AB) ushered in a new era of progress in controlling bacterial infections in human health, agriculture, and livestock [1] However, the use of AB has been challenged due to the appearance of multi-resistant bacteria (MDR), which have increased significantly in recent years due to AB mismanagement and have become a global public health problem [2].

Received: 1 September 2020; Accepted: 13 October 2020; Published: 16 October 2020 Abstract: In recent years, huge amounts of antibiotics have been administered to farm animals, and as a result, residues of these antibiotics can accumulate in livestock products and, once consumed, may be transmitted to humans. Farm animals’ antibiotic treatment may therefore present a risk for consumers health, especially for children and adolescents. In children, the immune system is not fully developed, and thus, they are more susceptible than adults to resistant bacteria. A dietary exposure assessment was conducted on veterinary antibiotics found in raw pork meat among children and adolescents in Cyprus, since pork is the most consumed red meat in Cypriot population.

  • The Ocean As a Global Reservoir of Antibiotic Resistance Genes
    The Ocean as a Global Reservoir of Antibiotic Resistance Genes Stephen M. Hatosy,a Adam C. Martinya,b Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of California, Irvine, California, USAa; Department of Earth System Science, University of California, Irvine, California, USAb Recent studies of natural environments have revealed vast genetic reservoirs of antibiotic resistance (AR) genes. Soil bacteria and Downloaded from human pathogens share AR genes, and AR genes have been discovered in a variety of habitats. However, there is little knowledge about the presence and diversity of AR genes in marine environments and which organisms host AR genes. To address this, we identified the diversity of genes conferring resistance to ampicillin, tetracycline, nitrofurantoin, and sulfadimethoxine in diverse marine environments using functional metagenomics (the cloning and screening of random DNA fragments). Marine environ- ments were host to a diversity of AR-conferring genes. Antibiotic-resistant clones were found at all sites, with 28% of the genes identified as known AR genes (encoding beta-lactamases, bicyclomycin resistance pumps, etc.). However, the majority of AR genes were not previously classified as such but had products similar to proteins such as transport pumps, oxidoreductases, and hydrolases. Furthermore, 44% of the genes conferring antibiotic resistance were found in abundant marine taxa (e.g., Pelagibac- http://aem.asm.org/ ter, Prochlorococcus, and Vibrio). Therefore, we uncovered a previously unknown diversity of genes that conferred an AR pheno- type among marine environments, which makes the ocean a global reservoir of both clinically relevant and potentially novel AR genes. he spread of antibiotic resistance (AR) is critically important sity of marine AR genes, and (iii) are these genes harbored by Tto human health.

For this purpose, Sarafloxacin (SAR) was employed to synthesize the immunogen and coating antigen through EDC conjugation method, and cell fusion technology was used to produce anti-SAR monoclonal antiobdy. Based on the square matrix titration, an icELISA method was established. The dynamic range for Sarafloxacin in assay buffer was from 0.004 to 18 ng/mL, with LOD and IC50 value of 0.002 ng/mL and 0.32 ng/mL, respectively. After optimization, the physiological pH (7.4) was selected for the immunoassays, and this assay could tolerate up to 10% acetonitrile. The results of this assay showed a high cross- reactivity to Difloxacin (85.5%), Norfloxacin (61.7%), and Pefloxacin (34.8%). Under the 10-fold dilution in authentic fish samples, the regression curve equations for Sarafloxacin, Difloxacin, Norfloxacin and Pefloxacin were y = 1.0114x - 0.4003, R2= 0.9901; y = 0.9782x + 0.2754, R2= 0.9807; y = 0.9892x +0.0489, R2= 0.9843; and y = 0.9797x +0.8017, R2= 0.9844, respectively.

Among the different antibiotic classes, tetracyclines and sulfonamides are two of the most used for veterinary proposals. Due to the fact that these compounds are poorly absorbed in the gut of animals, a significant proportion (up to ~90%) of them are excreted unchanged, thus reaching the environment mainly through the application of manures and slurries as fertilizers in agricultural fields. Once in the soil, antibiotics are subjected to a series of physicochemical and biological processes, which depend both on the antibiotic nature and soil characteristics. Adsorption/desorption to soil particles and degradation are the main processes that will affect the persistence, bioavailability, and environmental fate of these pollutants, thus determining their potential impacts and risks on human and ecological health.

Exception is granted for short excerpts for review purposes. iv Foreword The first edition of the Antibiotic Use Guidelines for Companion Animal Practice was published in autumn of 2012. The aim of the guidelines was to prevent increased antibiotic resistance. A questionnaire circulated to Danish veterinarians in 2015 (Jessen et al., DVT 10, 2016) indicated that the guidelines were well received, and particularly that active users had followed the recommendations. Despite a positive reception and the results of this survey, the actual quantity of antibiotics used is probably a better indicator of the effect of the first guidelines. Chapter two of these updated guidelines therefore details the pattern of developments in antibiotic use, as reported in DANMAP 2016 (www.danmap.org).

National Museum of Marine Biology and Aquarium, Pingtung, Taiwan, R.O.C. (Received: August 30, 2010; Accepted: April 26, 2012) ABSTRACT A LC-MS/MS method was validated for the simultaneous quantification of 4 quinolones (oxolinic acid, enrofloxacine, ciprofloxacine, norfloxacine) and 4 sulfonamides (sulfamethoxypyridazine, sulfadoxine, sulfadimidine, sulfamerazine) on fish muscle following the Euro- pean Union’s (EU) criteria for the analysis of veterinary drug residues in foods. One gram of sample was extracted by acidic acetonitrile (0.5 mL of 0.1% formic acid in 7 mL of ACN), followed by LC-MS/MS analysis using an electrospray ionization interface. Typical recoveries of the 4 quinolones in the fish tissues ranged from 85 to 104%. While those of the sulfonamides ranged from 75 to 94% at the fortification level of 5.0 μg/kg. The decision limits (CCα) and detection capabilities (CCβ) of the quinolones were 1.35 to 2.10 μg/kg and 1.67 to 2.75 μg/kg, respectively. Meanwhile, the CCα and CCβ of the sulfonamides ranged from 1.62 μg/kg to 2.53μg/kg and 2.01μg/kg to 3.13 μg/kg, respectively.
