Pistachio allergy rapid test kit | bioavid Lateral Flow Pistachio incl. Hook line | R-Biopharm

1. Intended use

The pistachio allergy rapid test kit (catalogue number: BLH711-15) with the integrated hook line from bioavid is an immunochromatographic assay for the sensitive and qualitative detection of pistachio allergen residues on surfaces (for example swab testing for hygiene monitoring in food production lines), in cleaning and process water (CIP water) and in food samples. The integrated hook line prevents false-negative interpretation of high-positive samples.

**NEW**

All surface test swabs are now included in the kit!

2. General information

- Pistachio contamination in food can trigger sensitisation in susceptible people. Food production lines must be free of residues to prevent these allergic reactions. The effectiveness of cleaning can be verified using a surface allergen rapid test.

- The surface swab test is an easy-to-use method that provides fast and reliable analytical results. Using our bioavid swab tests is very simple and can be handled by untrained staff. All bioavid test kits can be stored at room temperature and are therefore ideal tools for testing directly at production facilities. bioavid test kits contain the complete equipment for the analysis.

- Strongly coloured or acidic/alkaline solutions must be extracted with absorbent buffer (catalogue number BS810-25). The buffer solution decolourises or neutralises the solutions in order to avoid false-positive results (for example strongly coloured fruit juices).

- To analyse unvalidated samples, the document “Solid sample verification test SOP” (standard operating procedure) and the detailed instructions for use can be used.
