“…Due to these regulations and the potential dangers of gentamicin residues remaining in foods, it is necessary to have a detection method that is capable of detecting such low concentrations of the JFDS-2017-1753Submitted 10/25/2017, Accepted 4/9/2018 antibiotic. Existing methods for gentamicin detection include immunoassays (Chen, Li, He, Tang, & Xiao, 2010), HPLC (Kuehl, 2012), and capillary electrophoresis (Curiel, Vanderaerden, Velez, Hoogmartens, & Van Schepdael, 2007). These methods tend to be labor intensive, require expensive equipment, or do not have a sufficiently low limit of detection.…”
