Dutch food safety inspectors have found residues of drugs that are not allowed in the food chain in two samples of Polish beef adulterated with horsemeat.

One sample tested positive for the antibiotic oxytetracycline, with the second showing residues of sulfadimidine, Dutch food safety body NVWA said today.

Neither drug is allowed in the food chain in the European Union but there are tolerance limits in place. In the case of the sample with oxytetracycline, the quantities found were seven times higher than the tolerance limit, a spokesman for NVWA said. The sample with sulfadimidine showed quantities below the tolerance limit.

The samples were taken from a cold store where Dutch officials had previously found Polish beef that contained horse DNA.
