Delvotest SP-NT (3hr test)

Delvotest SP-NT (3hr test)

Ideal for checking individual cows when:

  • Cows calve early after dry cow therapy.
  • A cow has been treated ‘Off Label’:
    • when a standard dose rate has been exceeded
    • when treatments are extended
    • if treatments are combined
  • Off- label use renders normal withdrawal periods unreliable: extend to 7 days from last treatment and always test before resubmitting milk for sale.
  • If treatment records are ‘lost or confused’.
  • To identify which cow is responsible for a ‘mystery’ tank failure (see link inbottom PDF’s for protocol)

 

Testing all post-treatment cows, and securing a clear result before resubmitting milk for sale, remains the best safeguard available to ensure the integrity of your milk.

Common Questions

Can I use the Delvotest SPNT on my bulk tank?
No, the Delvotest SPNT is not sensitive enough to use on the bulk tank.
The Delvotest is fail safe. We recommend if you are faced with this to first of all run a “control test” on a known negative sample and known positive sample. This will provide you with the colour comparison to confirm that the test is working perfectly. You also need to check that your incubator is reaching 64° and it’s set for the total of 180minutes to run the SPNT test. Also ensure to refrigirate your tests in its original packaging between 4° and 8°.
The Delvotest can be affected by a high cell count as it may cause a slow release of the antibiotics and therefore slightly extend the withdraw period.
