AlerTox® ELISA

AlerTox ELISA is used for the quantitative determination of macadamia nuts in food products for allergen control and labeling. The method is based onELISA the color intensity is proportional to the antigen concentration. The assay enables reliable verification of cleaning processes, raw materials, and finished products.

The kit has been validated for several relevant food matrices, such as chocolate, cookies, ice cream, and cereal products. It exhibits very low cross-reactivity with other nuts, which minimizes the risk of false-positive results. The assay takes approximately 90 minutes to complete and is compatible with several AlerTox via a common extraction method.

Features

• Quantitative analysis (ELISA)
• High sensitivity (LOD 0.1 ppm)
• High specificity (minimal cross-reactivity with other nuts)
• 96-well microplate
• Reading time: approximately 90 minutes
• Simultaneous extraction of multiple allergens is possible
