Delvotest is a broad spectrum microbial inhibition test used in dairy for testing antibiotic residue in milk and milk products. It is used to ensure milk safety and is produced by the global company DSM.

The dairy sector has a responsibility to prevent the presence of antibiotic residues in milk for health reasons, processing and economic reasons and legal responsibility to adhere to the Maximum Residue Levels as defined by law.

Delvotest is a testing method that is used throughout the dairy value chain by laboratories, dairy companies and farmers.
