Agrastrip® Lateral Flow Devices

Food allergens represent an ever-present risk for individuals with allergies. Using reliable test kits to accurately detect potential allergen contaminations has become a critical necessity for food producers. For certain individuals in the community, the consumption of food allergens can trigger an anaphylactic reaction.

We offer complete portfolio of allergen test kits for the qualitative (AgraStrip®) analysis of food allergens. 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)
• Detection of allergens in environmental swab samples

The allergen test kits can be easily implemented into routine analysis as part of an allergen management plan within a HACCP-concept. The simple test format makes it easy for a smooth workflow to be maintained on-site as well as in the lab.

The AgraStrip® allergen test kits are ready-to-use lateral flow devices (LFD) for on-site testing. These immunological tests allow a rapid analysis of a wide range of food samples within only 11 minutes (including extraction).
AgraStrip® LFDs represent a fast and simple qualitative strip test method in which specific antibodies labeled with colloidal gold are used for visual color development at a test and control zone.
The test kits come complete with strips, antibody coated incubation vials, extraction tubes, an extraction buffer, surface swabs and additional accessories.
