Abstract: The purpose of this study was to facilitate the improvement of Chinese veterinary drug residue standards and the establishment of relevant regulatory system,and provide data reference for China's animal product trade,ensure people's food safety,and promote the better development of China's animal product economy.Firstly,the types of veterinary drug residues in pig tissues and the standards of veterinary drug maximum residue limits (MRLs) specified in the new national standard GB 31650-2019 "National Food Safety Standards Maximum Residue Limits of Veterinary Drugs in Food" was analyzed.Then compared the veterinary drug residue types and veterinary drug MRLs standards in pig tissues specified by the United States,the European Union,Japan and Codex Alimentarius Commission (CAC) with the new national standards.The total number of veterinary drugs,the types of veterinary drugs that were not specified in China but were specified in other standards,and the types of veterinary drugs with other standards that were stricter than Chinese standards were compared to find out difference.The results showed that the new national standards had made more detailed supplements and amendments.On the whole,the MRLs of veterinary drugs in pig tissues stipulated by China were becoming more and more complete,and most of the standards were in line with those specified by the European Union,the United States,Japan and CAC.The gap was getting smaller and smaller.However,there was still a certain gap with these countries or organization in terms of the MRLs for certain types of veterinary drugs.China needed to strengthen exchanges and cooperation with various developed countries and organization,to promote the development of China's veterinary drug residue standards,and accelerate the update of animal product quality and safety standards.

Key words: pig tissues; veterinary drug residues; MRLs standards
