How to Use an Egg Antibiotic Tester? Step-by-Step Guide for Quick Detection!

Eggs are one of the most common foods in daily diets. Excessive drug residues in eggs constitute an extremely serious food safety issue, directly impacting consumer health and safety. Should an incident of excessive drug residues occur, not only would the implicated companies face both reputational and economic losses, but the entire food industry could also suffer repercussions.

The lanende Egg Antibiotic Tester is a specialized instrument manufactured by Shandong lanende Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd. for detecting antibiotic residues in eggs. The usage steps for the lanende Egg Antibiotic Tester are as follows. I will guide you step-by-step through the rapid testing process:

I. Preparation Phase

Verify instrument status:

Ensure the lanende Egg Antibiotic Detector is properly installed, calibrated, and operational.

Check that all necessary components are present, including test cards, pipettes, reagents, etc.

Prepare Samples:

Select representative egg samples for testing.

Pre-process egg samples according to instrument requirements. For example, eggs may need to be broken and liquid or tissue extracted.

Prepare Reagents:

Prepare required reagents (e.g., extraction solvents, buffers) per the instrument manual.

Ensure reagents are within expiration dates and stored/used as specified in the manual.

II. Testing Procedure

Install Test Card:

Insert the corresponding test card into the instrument's card holder according to the model.

Ensure the test card is properly installed without any looseness or misalignment.

Sample Application:

Use a pipette to dispense the pretreated egg sample solution into the sample well of the test card.

Control the sample volume carefully to avoid excessive or insufficient amounts affecting the test results.

Set Parameters:

Configure appropriate parameters such as detection wavelength and test duration based on sample type and instrument model.

These settings are typically accessible via the instrument's user interface.

Initiate Detection:

Press the detection button on the instrument to start the automated process.

Monitor progress through the display screen during testing.

Read Results:

Upon completion, the instrument will display the detection outcome.

Results can be viewed directly on the display or printed for documentation.

III. Precautions

Operating Procedures:

Strictly adhere to the instrument manual during operation to prevent damage or inaccurate results from improper handling.

Safety Precautions:

Wear appropriate protective gear—such as laboratory gloves and safety goggles—when handling samples and reagents to avoid chemical splashes on skin or eyes.

Instrument Maintenance:

Regularly clean and maintain the instrument to ensure optimal performance.

If malfunctions or abnormalities occur, promptly contact the supplier or professional maintenance personnel for resolution.

IV. Rapid Testing Techniques

Sample Pretreatment:

During sample pretreatment, employ rapid and efficient methods to extract antibiotic residues from eggs. For instance, use appropriate solvents and extraction techniques to enhance extraction efficiency.

Reagent Optimization:

Based on practical needs, select more sensitive and stable reagents for detection. This enhances testing accuracy and sensitivity.

Operational Proficiency:

Improve operational proficiency through repeated practice and hands-on experience. This reduces testing time and increases efficiency.
