In our study, we analyzed the cytotoxicity of ethoxyquin (EQ) and its two salts, ethoxyquin hydrochloride (EQ-HCL) and ethoxyquin phosphate (EQ-P). It was shown that EQ was the most cytotoxic compound (IC(50) = 0.09 mM), while the lowest cytotoxic effect

Ethoxyquin (1,2-dihydro-6-ethoxy-2,2,4-trimethylquinoline, EQ) is widely used in various food products and in animal feeds because of its powerful antioxidant activity. This compound was recently found to cause not only many unfavourable side-effects in animals fed with feeds containing it, but

An analytical method using HPLC with fluorescence detection (HPLC-FL) has been developed and applied for the survey of residue levels of ethoxyquin in a variety of food products of animal origin. HPLC was performed using a silica octadecylsilane column, butylhydroxytoluene-acetonitrile-water

The synthetic antioxidant ethoxyquin (EQ) is increasingly used in animal feeds and has been candidate for carcinogenicity testing. EQ has the potential for toxicological and adverse health effects for both fish and fish consumers through "carryover" processes. The toxicological aspects
