Antibiotics are particularly difficult to extract due to their strong interactions with biological matrices. In this study, UPLC-MS/MS method was developed and validated for quantitative confirmatory analysis of multi-class antibiotics residues in fish and shrimp. Fourteen antibiotics belonging to sulphonamides, β-lactams, quinolones, sulfones and macrolides were determined within one chromatographic run. The samples were suspended in 0.1 M HCl, and the analytes were extracted into ethyl acetate. The extracts were defatted with cyclohexane. The limits of quantification (LOQ) ranged from 0.24 to 1.32 µg kg −1 for fish and 0.42-1.62 µg kg −1 for shrimp samples. The recoveries ranged from 75 to 105%. The method was applied to the analysis of farmed freshwater Tilapia fish (Oreochromis niloticus) and shrimp (Penaeus monodon) collected in Sri Lanka. Sulfacetamide (4.31 ± 0.70 µg kg −1) and sulfamethoxypyridazine (0.75 ± 0.15 µg kg −1) were detected in the fish, and sulfapyridine (0.21-0.56 µg kg −1) and sulfadoxine (0.35-1.44 µg kg −1) were detected in the shrimp samples. The concentrations complied with the EU regulation limits for veterinary drug residues in seafood and did not pose a risk in terms of food safety. %G English %2 https://univ-pau.hal.science/hal-04078981/document %2 https://univ-pau.hal.science/hal-04078981/file/fishes-08-00154-v3.pdf %L hal-04078981 %U https://univ-pau.hal.science/hal-04078981 %~ CNRS %~ UNIV-PAU %~ IPREM %~ INC-CNRS %~ IPREM-CAPT %~ UPPA-OA %~ TEST2-HALCNRS
