Livestock Control
Quality control in livestock production is essential to ensure animal health, food safety, and regulatory compliance across the production chain. Testing workflows support the monitoring of feed, water, environmental conditions, and animal health while enabling early detection of pathogens, contaminants, and disease risks.
Livestock operations operate under strict regulatory frameworks, including the EU Animal Health Law (Regulation (EU) 2016/429) and U.S. USDA and FDA requirements for disease control, residue monitoring, and food chain safety. Reliable and standardized analytical workflows help improve traceability, reduce contamination risks, and support faster decision-making in farm and veterinary environments.
Microbiology Quality Control
Microbiological testing supports the detection and monitoring of pathogens that impact animal health, biosecurity, and downstream food safety across livestock production workflows.
Typical monitoring programs include:
- Salmonella detection
- Campylobacter monitoring
- E. coli analysis
- Feed and water microbiology testing
- Environmental surface monitoring
Livestock laboratories and veterinary services require reliable and standardized workflows capable of handling complex sample matrices under both field and laboratory conditions.
Workflow
Rapid Quality Control
Rapid quality control workflows support fast screening and routine verification directly within livestock production environments, enabling faster operational decisions without complex laboratory infrastructure.
Typical lateral flow applications include:
- Mycotoxin detection in feed
- Antibiotic residue testing in milk
- Hormone detection for reproductive management
- Viral screening for biosecurity programs
- Water and environmental contamination screening
Rapid testing technologies support early risk detection across feed, water, milk, and production-related samples.
Workflow
Environmental Monitoring
Environmental monitoring supports contamination control and biosecurity assessment within livestock production environments, particularly in poultry houses, swine barns, and enclosed animal facilities.
Typical monitoring applications include:
- Airborne microbial monitoring
- Bioaerosol assessment
- Ventilation and air quality evaluation
- Environmental hygiene monitoring
- Airborne pathogen risk assessment
Air sampling workflows help improve environmental control, support biosecurity programs, and reduce contamination risks in livestock facilities.
