"We are detecting illegal antibiotics in feed or even too high levels of legal antibiotics on a regular basis. For instance, from some producers in the Primorsky Territory we received feed that contained such levels of antibiotics, which were equal to therapeutic doses. Moreover, in compound feed for laying hens we regularly found therapeutic doses of antibiotics, when in fact the use of antibiotics in feed for laying hens is prohibited by Russian law," said Elena Titova from the department of safety of feed and feed additives of the All-Russian State Centre for Quality and Standardisation of Animal Drugs and Feed.
