Question

Given below are two statements:
Statement (I): The Delvotest- SP is used for detection of Streptomycin and penicillin residues in milk.
Statement (II): The Delvotest\textregistered is used for the detection of penicillin residues in milk.

• A. Both Statement (I) and Statement (II) are true
• B. Both Statement (I) and Statement (II) are false
• C. Statement (I) is true but Statement (II) is false
• D. Statement (I) is false but Statement (II) is true

Hint:

Remember that Delvotest uses Geobacillus stearothermophilus spores. If antibiotics are present in the milk, the spores cannot germinate and grow, preventing acid production and leaving the pH indicator color unchanged (remaining purple).
