Romerlab AgraStrip for testing total milk allergen

Click2Contact

FMCG Industry Solutions is now offering the Romerlab AgraStrip for testing total milk allergen. Previously, to test for the presence of milk allergens, processors had to decide whether to look for casein or beta-lactoglobulin as an indicator for allergenic residues.

With the AgraStrip Total Milk, it is possible to test for both at the same time.

The product is based on lateral flow technology, which means that results are available in around 11 minutes without the need for any specialised equipment.

It is easily implemented into routine analysis as part of an allergen management plan. The simple test format makes it easy for a smooth workflow to be maintained onsite within a manufacturing environment as well as in the laboratory.

Results are read visually, and the limit of detection is 1 ppm of milk protein. The test is suitable for all food manufacturers and as a final verification of their processes.

These tests can be used for different applications, and cover all steps in the food production process: testing of raw materials and finished food samples; analysis of rinse waters (as part of cleaning validation); and detection of allergens in environmental swab samples.
