Streptomycin is an aminoglycoside antibiotic used in apiculture to protect bees against a variety of brood diseases. Brazilian authorities have included it in the National Regulatory Monitoring Program for honey production. A simple and reliable method using liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry has been developed and validated for the determination of streptomycin in honey. The chromatography separation was performed on a Gemini 5 μm C18 (50 mm × 2 mm) column using 5 mM heptafluorbutiric acid/acetonitrile (85:15) as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 0.2 mL min−1. The detection of the analyte was achieved by positive ionization electrospray in multiple reaction-monitoring modes. Two characteristic transitions were monitored for streptomycin. Some analytical parameters were validated according to the guidelines laid down by European Commission Decision 2002/657/EC: decision limit, detection capability, recovery, precision and ruggedness. The recoveries of streptomycin from honey fortified at 2.5, 10, 15 and 20 μg kg−1 levels are around 100%. The decision limit and detection capability of streptomycin was 3 μg kg−1 and 4.7 μg kg−1 respectively.
