Bioo Scientific Optimises the Screening of Multiple Tetracycline Residues in Milk, Meat and Honey

12 Jun 2011

Bioo Scientific recently optimized its proprietary MaxSignal® Tetracycline ELISA Kit to offer higher sensitivity and simplified extraction protocols and launched three new kits for the specific detection of oxytetracycline, chlortetracycline and doxycycline to improve the screening for tetracycline contamination in milk, meat and honey samples.

Bioo Scientific offers two different versions of the MaxSignal® Tetracycline ELISA Kit; one for milk and another for meat, honey and other sample types. Offering high recovery rates and sensitive detection limits, the MaxSignal Tetracycline ELISA Test Kit for meat and other sample types offers a unique, proprietary extraction protocol that does not require columns for clean-up thus greatly reducing both the cost and time required for tetracycline analysis in meat samples.

With a detection limit of 0.5 ppb, the milk version of the MaxSignal Tetracycline ELISA Test Kit offers more sensitive quantitation of tetracycline residues in milk than any other competing ELISA. This increased sensitivity makes the kit ideal for customers who need to ensure that their dairy products are free of tetracycline contamination.

In addition, the MaxSignal® Oxytetracycline ELISA Kit, the MaxSignal® Chlortetracycline ELISA Kit and the MaxSignal® Doxycycline ELISA Kit were launched to facilitate the screening of specific tetracycline antibiotic in a variety of food samples. These kits also incorporate the proprietary extraction protocol for meat that does not require columns for clean-up.

These kits include all of the reagents required for tetracycline screening including standards and a pre-coated, 96-well breakaway strip plate.
