PriboFast®ß-Lactoglobulin ELISA Kit(Ver.2.0)
(Cat.No.:EKT-L60)
General Information
Bovine milk belongs to the most important allergenic food ingredients especially for children. Already very low amounts of bovine milk can cause allergic reactions, which may lead to anaphylactic shock in severe cases. Because of this, milk allergic persons must strictly avoid the consumption of milk or milk containing food. In particular the presence of hidden milk proteins such as in sausage, cookies, convenience food or beverages represent a critical problem for milk allergic persons. According to EU Directive 2003/89/EG the addition of bovine milk has to be labeled. For the detection of bovine milk in foodstuffs sensitive detection systems are required. Approximately 20 % of bovine milk proteins are whey proteins. The main fraction of whey proteins consists of the heat-stable allergen ß-lactoglobulin.
This kit represents a highly sensitive detection system and is particularly capable of the identification and quantification of bovine milk residues in cookies, cereals, sausage, orange juice, wine, soy products and chocolate as well as the production environment monitoring.
