This is a commercial rapid test commonly used for screening for antibiotic inhibitors in milk. The so-called Delvotest^®T is validated by the French AFNOR, but is only carried out in a few laboratories as an accredited method, ...

…not so at AGROLAB LUFA in Kiel. Our microbiology team presented the method to the DAKKS auditors and has now been rewarded with the official accreditation of the rapid test.

If a milk or milk powder sample tests positive, it is highly likely that the sample contains residues of an antibiotic agent.

If desired, a second, more precise examination with a likewise accredited HPLC-MS/MS method will show which veterinary drug is involved.

YOUR PLUS: The accreditation of the Delvotest^®T Screening guarantees a safe and reproducible performance under standardised laboratory conditions and is thus a good supplement and confirmation for in-process in-house analysis.
