Urea Can Now Be Tested Directly in the Cattle Shed

MiniFoodLab and FoodLab are able to determine Milk Urea Nitrogen (MUN) in raw milk without any previous processing of the sample.

Both systems are able to process milk samples from cows, sheep, goats and buffalos. The methods used have specifically been developed by CDR’s research laboratories in order to simplify operations as much as possible and minimise the time required to carry out the test.

The low toxicity reagents used for all tests eliminate the need of handling toxic or dangerous substances. With MiniFoodLab and FoodLab, a dedicated testing laboratory is not required.

It is in fact possible to determine the amount of Milk Urea Nitrogenin the cattle shed just after milking: , which means that it is not necessary to send milk samples to a laboratory in order to determine the most appropriate diet and improve the health of the animals.

An Accurate Measuring System

The analytical method used by MiniFooLab and FoodLab has been validated by Standard Latte Laboratory. Comparative studies have demonstrated that the accuracy of results parallel those obtained via reference methods, but also highlighted the fact that MiniFoodLab and FoodLab are simpler to use and enable to obtain the desired results in shorter time.
