Why Dairy Testing Matters—Up and Down the Supply Chain
Australia’s dairy industry runs on stringent quality standards—beyond protecting consumer health, dairy producers must comply with Maximum Residue Limits for antibiotics and contaminants. Penalties for non-compliance can be steep, and contaminated batches jeopardise both safety and trust. Broad-spectrum solutions like Dairy Testing Kit in Australia, such as Delvotest, are globally validated against antibiotic residues across dairy systems.
- IRIS Series: Fast, Foolproof Early Detection
Vendart’s IRIS devices, especially the upgraded IRIS3, turn raw milk safety checks into a breeze. They deliver results in just 6 minutes, scanning for beta-lactams and tetracyclines with built-in optical sensors and precise incubation—no operator guesswork. The automatic interpretation ensures consistent accuracy even under pressure
These devices can be used:
On farms, during transport, or at processing facilities.
By personnel with minimal technical training.
With cloud-based result sharing through apps or platforms—perfect for remote monitoring
