Abstract:
This study aimed to investigate malachite green residues in farmed fish and to assess its dietary exposure in Armenia. Quantitative measurement of malachite green in fish samples was done by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay method. The results were approved by the LC-MS/MS method. The malachite green residues were found only in 20 % of the investigated fish samples and exceeded the minimum required performance limit (MRPL) of 0.002 mg/kg set by the EU legislation. The obtained results highlighted the issues concerning the illegal use of malachite green in some fish farms in Armenia.
