title: [The New Dutch Kidney Test. II. Sensitivity of the test system].
abstract: When the in vitro sensitivity of the New Netherlands Kidney Test (NNKT) is compared with that of the test plates of the current Netherlands Kidney Test (NKT) and the EEC four-plate system (ECT), this shows that it occupies a middle position with regard to aminoglycosides, macrolides and tetracyclines. The test plate of the NNKT is more sensitive to sulphonamides. Experimental qualitative and quantitative studies in slaughtered pigs showed that the New Netherlands Kidney Test was equally sensitive or more so in detecting residues of sulphonamides, chloramphenicol, tetracyclines, aminoglycosides and penicillin derivatives than the ECT system for meat. In addition to the simplicity of the current Netherlands Kidney Test, the New Netherlands Kidney Test also shows the broad-spectrum sensitivity of the ECT system. When tolerance standard of nitrofurans or chloramphenicol respectively is 1 or 10 ppb, the New Netherlands Kidney Test will fail.
