LC-MS ß-agonist Testing Kit for Livestock and Animal-derived Foods
Sensitive detection of growth hormones
Due to potential health risks, ß-agonists have been banned for use as growth promoters in livestock. As a consequence, global regulatory agencies require highly sensitive and specific analysis methods to ensure that ß-agonist residues are not present in animal-derived foods. The Thermo Scientific™ LC-MS ß-agonist Testing Kit for Livestock and Animal-derived Foods provides the application protocol and products required to meet international regulatory requirements for ß-agonist analysis.
