The chemical synthesis of naturally occurring corticosteroids has led to the generation of artificial corticosteroids that are used in therapeutic veterinary drugs. Many of these drugs are also used illegally as growth promoters particularly in cattle, often in combination with Beta-agonists. Dexamethasone, Flumethasone and Betamethasone all belong to this group of drugs that are also known as glucocorticosteriods. The European Union has banned the use of corticosteroids administration for fattening purposes in animals. For this purpose Randox Food Diagnostics have developed Immunoaffinity columns (IACs) which provide a very specific and efficient purification.

Very efficient and specific clean up of sample Excellent Limits of Detections Faster due to fewer purification steps
