Objective To understand the residue status of 10 kinds of anesthetics in freshwater fish in Yubei District of Chongqing in 2024, and to assess the dietary exposure risk. Methods The 60 samples of commercially available in Yubei District in 2024 were randomly collected, and 10 kinds of anesthetic residues were detected by the ultra performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Combined with the dietary intake of residents, the dietary exposure risk of anesthetic residues in freshwater fish was evaluated by food safety index method. Results The detection rate of eugenol was 51.7%, and the concentration range was 3.48-583.00 μg/kg. The detection rate of methyl eugenol was 90.0%, and the concentration range was 10.50-43.80 μg/kg. The detection rate of isoeugenol was 48.3%, and the concentration range was 3.42-619.00 μg/kg. The detection rate of methyl isoeugenol was 78.3%, and the concentration range was 6.47-30.40 μg/kg. The other 6 kinds of anesthetics were not detected. The detection rates of different anesthetics in freshwater fish were significantly different (P<0.01). The maximum index of food safety of eugenol, methyl eugenol, isoeugenol and methyl isoeugenol in freshwater fish were 0.820×10-4, 0.308×10-5, 0.434×10-4 and 0.214×10-5, respectively. Conclusion In 2024, the residue of fishery anesthetics in freshwater fish sold in Yubei District of Chongqing is generally at a safe level, but the residue of eugenol anesthetics is common, which should be paid attention to by relevant departments to regulate the use of fishery anesthetics in aquatic products.
