FOOD DIAGNOSTICS Drug Residue Screening Reduce labour, increase productivity and decrease costs
Drug residue testing With nearly 30 years experience in the market and a dedicated research and development team, Randox Food Diagnostics is committed to the development and manufacturing of high quality and accurate drug residue testing solutions. This unique multi-analyte testing platform will reduce labour costs, increase throughput and guarantee overall productivity improvement. Drug residues are causing concern increasingly worldwide. Most drugs are introduced to improve animal health however, the abuse of drugs is becoming increasingly widespread. The legitimate treatment of disease with drugs such as antibiotics (in clinical doses) reduces mortality in livestock while other growth promoting agents are mis-used to improve meat production. Reduce labour costs, increase throughput and guarantee overall productivity improvement Global racing authorities are reliant upon drug residue screening solutions to maintain the integrity of the racing industry by testing for illegal performance altering drugs. An increasing number of compounds are being screened to protect the safety of animals and to ensure races are won on the animals natural ability. As a consequence of the abuse of drugs within the food production and animal racing industries, the practice of using high doses of antibiotics, growth promoters and drugs of abuse is strictly regulated.
