A quick and easy milk sample test to detect beta-lactam residues in 10 minutes or less. Detects penicillin G, ampicillin, amoxicillin, cephapirin and ceftiofur residues in raw, commingled milk at or below established tolerance/safe levels. Convenient, effective and inexpensive way for the producer to test milk. Incubator sold separately. SNAP Beta-Lactam Test detects penicillin G, amoxicillin, ampicillin, ceftiofur and cephapirin residues in raw, commingled milk at or below established safe levels. The SNAP Beta Lactam Test also detects cloxacillin at a level above established safe levels. Kit contains 30 tests, SNAP device, sample tube and cap, reagent pellet and pipette. Store Kit at 32°-45°F. Requires Heater Block capable of maintaining an operating temperature of 113°F (sold separately).

Preheat the temperature block and maintain temperature for 10 to 15 minutes at 45 °C (113 °F). Collect a raw, commingled milk sample. Remove test kit from the packaging. Verify reagent pellet is at the bottom of the sample tube. Place the SNAP test in the preheated heater block. The test should remain on heater block for the duration of the test.
Shake the milk sample thoroughly. Remove the sample tube cap. With the Idexx pipette, draw up the milk sample to the indicator line (avoiding air bubbles). Add the milk sample to the tube. Shake the sample tube to dissolve the reagent pellet. Incubate the sample tube in the block heater for 5 minutes.
Pour the entire contents in the tube into the sample well of the SNAP test. The sample will flow to the blue activation circle. When that BEGINS to disappear, push down the activator until it snaps. Read results in four minutes.
