OCA14. Characteristics of the author's contributionThe author is the bearer of the main ideas of the scientific work of the postgraduate student (Gondová, Z.) and the corresponding author of the scientific output. She is also the bearer of funds for the project from which the scientific output was realized.
OCA15. Annotation of the output with contextual information concerning the description of creative process and the content of the research/artistic/other activity, etc.The study compares two existing microbiological inhibition tests, Screening Test for Antibiotic Residues (STAR) and Premi®Test with two recently introduced tests, Nouws Antibiotic Test (NAT) and Total Antibiotics for the screening of antimicrobial residues in the tissues of food-producing animals. In the negative or positive sample classification based on inhibition of the growth of test strain sensitive to many antibiotics and sulphonamides, out of 142 samples obtained from slaughterhouses and retail operations, 39 samples yielded a positive result in one or more tests: 4 samples in four tests, 14 samples in three tests, 13 samples in two tests, and 8 samples in one test. As for the numbers of observed positive samples, the descending sequence of tests was: STAR, Total Antibiotics, Premi®Test, NAT. The growth inhibition was observed in three out of seven test strains, namely Bacillus cereus ATCC 11778, Kocuria rhizophila ATCC 9341, and Bacillus stearothermophilus var. calidolactis. Considering the test strains sensitivity and no inhibition on the Bacillus pumilus NCIMB 10822 NAT test plates, our preliminary conclusion is that the animal samples are suspected for the presence of tetracycline, macrolide, and β-lactam antibiotics.
Other data
OCA16. Annotation of the output in EnglishAll the microbial inhibition tests used in our study showed the ability to characterize the samples as positive. The higher numbers of positive results were detected by the officially approved multi-plate test, the STAR, and the unofficial, recently introduced tube test, the Total Antibiotics. The higher number of positives detected by both microbial inhibition tests allowed us to come to the preliminary conclusion that these tests showed a higher level of sensitivity to the antibiotics presented in the screened samples than the NAT and the Premi®Test. However, more detailed studies are needed to reach a final conclusion on whether two recently introduced screening tests, the NAT and the Total Antibiotics, are more suitable alternatives for the commercial screening purposes. Microbial inhibition tests still form the first line of defence in monitoring the presence of antibiotic residues in food of animal origin intended for human consumption, it is therefore crucial to have accurate screening tests at hand.
