FDA BAM Chapter Chloramphenicol Residue Screening in Seafood

In the global food and feed industry, ensuring the safety of products is paramount. The Food & Drug Administration’s (FDA) Bacteriological Analytical Manual (BAM) provides stringent guidelines for testing various contaminants that could affect public health. One such critical test involves screening for chloramphenicol residues in seafood samples. Chloramphenicol is a broad-spectrum antibiotic that, when misused or improperly administered to animals, can lead to dangerous levels of residue in their meat and produce harmful effects on consumers.

The FDA has established guidelines detailed in its BAM Chapter 9310 for the accurate and reliable detection of chloramphenicol residues. This method ensures that seafood products meet regulatory standards set forth by international organizations such as the World Health Organization (WHO), Food Safety Authorities, and other relevant bodies worldwide. Compliance with these regulations is essential to protect public health and maintain consumer trust.

Our laboratory specializes in providing FDA BAM Chapter 9310 compliance testing services for chloramphenicol residues in seafood. Our team of experts utilizes advanced analytical techniques to ensure precision and reliability throughout the entire process, from sample collection to final report generation. By adhering strictly to the specified methods outlined by the FDA, we guarantee accurate results that meet regulatory requirements.

The significance of chloramphenicol residue testing cannot be overstated. Misuse or improper application can result in significant health risks for consumers, including aplastic anemia and other severe conditions.
