Phenylbutazone ELISA

Phenylbutazone (Bute) is a pyrazolone derivative that was one of the first non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) approved for use in horses and dogs. The use of bute in food producing animals is prohibited in most countries, including the European Union, United States, Canada and Japan. As a result, MRLs have not been set for phenylbutazone residues, meaning that any detection is considered a violation.

The Randox Food Diagnostics Phenylbutazone (Bute) ELISA test kit detects the veterinary drug residue ‘bute’ in tissue. Applicable sample types include tissue and serum.
