Antibiotics usage for treating, protective, and similar purposes of animals may cause residue in foods of animal origin. Rawmilk has high risk in terms of antibiotics residue. The consumption of such foods can cause serious health problems inhuman. For this purpose, 80 raw milk samples were collected from Afyonkarahisar province and analysed for beta-lactamantibiotics by means of ELISA. The result of analyses showed that 38 samples did not contain beta-lactam residue, 35samples contained different concentration and acceptable maximum residue limits of beta-lactam, and 7 samples containedresidues above 3 ppb but below 30 ppb. In conclusion, relatively high level of residue in raw milk showed that milk isoffered for human consumption without taking it into consideration of withdrawal time.
