Hygiena Alertox ELISA

SKU: KT
Supplier: Hygiena (view all products)

AlerTox kits are quantitative ELISA Sandwich type immunoabsorbent assay designed for the detection and quantification of the allergen en question. During the test, the sample is added to a plate that specifically recognizes the allergen. After the washing steps, the addition of another antibody conjugated to peroxidase (HRP), which also recognizes the allergen, results in a measurable signal.

AlerTox  ELISA Sandwich is a direct method therefore the higher concentration of allergen present the more intense the signal will be.

The ELISA Sandwich is a technique usually used for the analysis of substances found at very low concentrations. This combined with the high specificity and sensitivity of the antibodies used in these test allows this method to precisely quantify allergen in beverages and food. AlerTox ELISA can be used with any type of food sample. However, AlerTox Lysozyme and Ovalbumin kits are only validated for wine samples.
