European Norm
65.120 Animal feeding stuffs
This European Standard specifies a method for the determination of additive use of nicarbazin in animal feeding stuffs and premixtures (maximum concentration 2,5% nicarbazin) using high performance liquid chromatography. Nicarbazin is a 1:1 equimolar mixture of 4,4’-dinitrocarbanilide (DNC) and 4,6-dimethyl-2-pyriminol (HDP). Nicarbazin is generally determined by using DNC as the target compound. In this method the DNC moiety of nicarbazin is detected.
The limit of quantitation is 20 mg/kg. The limit of detection is 0,5 mg/kg
NOTE A lower limit of quantitation may be achievable but should be validated by the user.
