A study of the meson-baryon interaction in the S = -1 sector is performed, employing a chiral SU(3) Lagrangian up to next-to-leading order (NLO) and implementing unitarization in coupled channels. The model is constrained by a large set of experimental data, paying special attention to processes that are sensitive to the NLO contributions, such as the K(-)p -> K+Xi(-), K-0 Xi(0) reactions. The consideration of additional cross sections in single isospin channels, K(-)p -> eta Lambda, eta Sigma, has been found to provide NLO low-energy constants of rather similar size. The stability of these constants has also been tested by the inclusion of explicit resonant terms. Predictions for new isospin filtering processes, like the I = 1K(L)(0)p -> K+Xi(0) reaction that could be measured at the proposed secondary K-L(0) beam at Jlab, or the weak decay of the Lambda(b) into a J/Psi and different meson-baryon pairs in I = 0, available at LHCb, are presented. The measurement of such reactions would put valuable constraints on the chiral models describing the S = -1 meson-baryon interaction.
