Description
Intended use:
EuroProxima Ivermectin is an unique competitive enzyme immunoassay (ELISA) for the detection of ivermectin in urine, tissue and milk samples.
General Information:
Ivermectin, also named dihydroavermectin, is a member of a group of naturally occurring macrocyclic lactones known as avermectins. The following compounds belong to the avermectines: abamectin, ivermectin, doramectin and eprinomectin. Ivermectin is frequently used to control parasites in many food producing animal species. It is a mixture of two homologues containing not less than 80% 22,23-dihydroavermectin B1a and not more than 20% 22,23-dihydroavermectin B1b. It is an exceptionally potent drug which exhibits a broad spectrum activity against parasites in many species.
Within the European Union Maximum Residue Limits (MRL) for ivermectine have been established; based on the 22,23-dihydro-avermectin B1a marker residue.
The Ivermectin ELISA is a competitive enzyme immunoassay based on antibodies directed against ivermectin.
