Milk Analysis in Thailand — Two Instruments, Eight Arrays, One Technology Platform
Milk analysis in Thailand, supported by Randox Biochip Array Technology available exclusively through BCST, addresses the fundamental challenge of dairy residue testing — the need to screen for multiple parameters simultaneously from a single milk sample without the time, cost, and operational complexity of running multiple individual assays. The Randox milk testing portfolio delivers this through two instruments and eight Biochip Array test kit options, each designed for a different operational context.
There are no ELISA kits for milk in the current Randox Food Diagnostics portfolio. All Randox milk residue testing operates through Biochip Array Technology. This reflects the complexity of milk as a matrix and the breadth of parameters that serious dairy compliance programs require — parameters that span antibiotics, anthelmintics, beta-lactams, hormones, NSAIDs, and other residue classes simultaneously.
BCST is the exclusive Randox Food Diagnostics distributor in Thailand and the only organization in Thailand with the capability to supply, install, and support both Evidence Series instruments at the technical level dairy operations require.

| On-farm milk quality verification before dispatch | Evidence MultiSTAT + InfiniPlex for Milk Sensitive |
| Centralized dairy laboratory, high sample volume | Evidence Investigator + InfiniPlex (EV4076) |
| Extended multi-parameter milk surveillance | Evidence Investigator + InfiniPlex Array II |
| Targeted beta-lactam monitoring | Evidence Investigator + Beta Lactam Array Plus |
| Bovine pathology monitoring alongside residues | Evidence Investigator + Bovine Pathology Array |
| Comprehensive antibiotic surveillance | Evidence Investigator + multiple antimicrobial arrays |
BCST does not recommend either instrument without first understanding your operation. Contact BCST to arrange a consultation covering your testing volume, current methods, regulatory obligations, and budget.
Applications in Thailand
Large Dairy Processors — CP Meiji and Similar Integrated Operations
Dairy processors handling significant daily milk volumes from multiple farm suppliers require multi-parameter testing for every incoming batch. The InfiniPlex platform consolidates comprehensive milk screening into a single instrument workflow with a complete multi-parameter results output per sample — eliminating the fragmented compliance record and operational complexity of running multiple individual tests.
Dairy Cooperatives and Farm Supplier Networks
Cooperatives managing milk quality from multiple farm suppliers use the Evidence Investigator to process high sample volumes in centralized laboratories. Up to 48 samples in 2 hours provides the throughput needed to screen an entire day’s intake from multiple suppliers with results available before evening milking begins.
At-Plant and On-Farm Testing
Processing plants and farm operations requiring rapid qualitative results before milk enters the production stream or distribution system use the Evidence MultiSTAT. Three steps. Under 30 minutes. No specialist laboratory skills required for routine operation once BCST completes installation and operator training.
Japanese and EU Buyer Compliance Programs
Dairy operations supplying Japanese buyers — operating under Japan’s Positive List System with comprehensive residue documentation requirements — or EU buyers with equivalent standards use the InfiniPlex multi-parameter arrays to produce documented results covering the full range of analytes required by those markets in a single consolidated output per sample.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between InfiniPlex for Milk Sensitive on the MultiSTAT (EV4278) and on the Evidence Investigator (EV4076)?
Both use the InfiniPlex for Milk Sensitive array. The key difference is the instrument and the result type. EV4278 on the fully automated Evidence MultiSTAT delivers one qualitative result in under 30 minutes through three simple steps. EV4076 on the semi-automated Evidence Investigator delivers semi-quantitative results for up to 48 samples in 2 hours. Choose based on your throughput requirements and whether you need qualitative or semi-quantitative data for your compliance program.
Q: How many milk contaminants can the InfiniPlex array screen for simultaneously?
The InfiniPlex array for milk can screen for up to 130 contaminants simultaneously from a single undivided sample — covering antibiotics, anthelmintics, beta-lactams, hormones, NSAIDs, and other residue classes in one run. This is the most comprehensive level of milk testing currently available to the dairy industry from a single platform.
Q: What documentation can BCST provide?
BCST provides IFU documentation, ISO 9001 certification references, and technical data for all Randox milk analysis products. For instrument purchases, BCST additionally provides installation support and operator training coordination. Pricing is provided in Thai Baht upon enquiry.
