Abstract

The aim of the study was to detect the residue concentrations of sulphadimidine (SD) in the edible tissues of laying hens after oral administration up to the 15th day of the withdrawal period (WP) by the two microbiological methods – The Four plate test (FPT) and the Premi®Test. Finally, the results were confirmed by high-performance liquid chromatography system (HPLC). The FPT detected positive results of SD residues only the first day of the withdrawal period in all edible tissues, the Premi®Test detected positive results in the muscle and in the liver till the fifth day and in the gizzard till the third day of the withdrawal period. The Premi®Test was more sensitive than FPT and the results obtained by Premi®Test were confirmed by HPLC.
