List of target tissue(s) for residue analysis
This table, as guidance to the residue monitoring laboratories, lists target tissues for residue analysis of veterinary drugs in different animal species. Monitoring of residues in these tissues ensure the safety of residues in all other edible tissues. Milk, eggs and honey are not included in this table as they need to be individually tested.
