BACKGROUND Residual antibiotics taken along with food consumed through the food chain are the main cause of the super‐bacteria and may damage organs such as liver and kidney. Therefore, monitoring residual antibiotic levels of products in the food chain is both important and a requirement. Maximum residual limits for kanamycin and neomycin are 150 ng mL −1 and 500 ng mL −1 respectively, which are challenging for most sensor platforms. In this paper, a novel method is presented for the determination of antibiotics residues in animal‐derived foods. RESULTS Aptamer‐based kanamycin and neomycin biosensors based on the spectroscopic ellipsometer and the surface plasmon resonance‐enhanced total internal reflection ellipsometer methods as transducing element were developed. Detection limits of both sensor platforms were in the 0.1–1 nmol L −1 ranges, and the detection range was between the detection limit and 1000 nmol L −1 . CONCLUSION Both ellipsometry‐based aptasensors can be used as an alternative to the existing enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay‐based method in terms of assay time (10 min), detection limit (0.22 ng mL −1 for neomycin and 0.048 ng mL −1 for kanamycin), and detection range. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry
