ELISA Systems™ Mustard Seed Protein Residue Detection kit for Food Allergen Testing

Description

Simplify allergen testing with ELISA Systems™ Mustard Seed Protein Residue Detection Kit which helps ensure compliance with food product labeling requirements. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay is designed to deliver simple, sensitive, and fast detection and quantification of mustard seed protein material in food and environmental samples. This complete, ready-to-use kit is developed and optimized for rapid and reliable test results that significantly reduce the time required to screen appropriate food products for the presence of mustard seed protein residue.

The European Directive 2003/89/EC includes mustard as a declared food allergen, and as such, it must be included, where applicable, under the appropriate labelling laws regarding food allergens. Mustard is widely used as a flavoring agent, as well as for its texture-enhancing and emulsification capacity in various food preparations, particularly with salad dressings and meats.

Use ELISA Systems Mustard Seed Protein Residue Kit for rapid detection and quantification of mustard seed protein material in food and environmental samples.

• Fast: Sample preparation to result in under 60 minutes for rapid test turnaround and actions
• Simple: Ready-to-use liquid reagents and concentrates, plus common handling procedure for all kits, make ELISA Systems Assays easy to implement and run
• Robust: Ready-to-use liquid controls and allergen-free non-control reagents mean reduced risk of cross contamination that could lead to false-positive results
• Flexible: Use for qualitative or quantitative testing—a single kit for more applications
• Sensitive: Detect proteins or protein residues, including heat stable proteins, at low levels for improved assurance of product safety
• Supported: Our experienced technical team is ready to assist you and help mitigate delays in test reporting

Two common and closely related species of mustard seeds were used in the development of this assay: White Mustard ( Brassica alba, sometimes known as Sinapis alba or Yellow Mustard) and Black Mustard ( Brassica nigra). The assay has been shown to detect the seed proteins from these species, as well as seed protein from another mustard seed: Brassica juncea (Brown Mustard).

All results should be interpreted as part of a HACCP plan for food allergens. Any sample returning a positive result should be regarded as a presumptive result, and confirmation or further testing should be performed.
