Food and Feed Safety Assay Kits provide an efficient and reliable solution. This product line accurately detects a wide range of harmful substances that may be present in food and feed, including:

• Antibiotics
• Veterinary medicine
• Bacterial toxins
• Mycotoxins
• Hormones
• Pesticide residues
• Other illicit additives

Food and Feed Safety Assay Kit utilizes competitive ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay), a highly sensitive immunoassay for the quantitative analysis of target substances in animal-derived food and feed. This method is based on the competitive binding of an antigen and an antibody, where the signal intensity is inversely proportional to the concentration of the target substance in the sample. This high-sensitivity and high-specificity technique is ideal for detecting analytes present at low concentrations.

Broad Applicability

Designed for a wide range of applications, including the detection of

• Veterinary Drug Residues: Ensures safety in animal-derived foods and feed.
• Prohibited Substances & Toxins: Screens for harmful contaminants in feed production.
• Adulteration: Verifies the authenticity of animal-derived foods by species component analysis.

Diverse Sample Compatibility

Pre-treatment protocols are available for optimal results across all sample types. The kit is validated for a variety of sample matrices, including:

• Animal-based samples: Serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell lysates, and bodily fluids for the detection of drugs, hormones, and pathogens.
• Plant-based samples: Grains, corn, rice, beans, milk, and oils for the detection of pesticides, mycotoxins, and other contaminants.

High Performance

• High Sensitivity: Accurately detects trace amounts of harmful substances.
• Strong Specificity: Ensures reliable results and minimizes false positives.

Efficiency & Usability

• Complete Kit: Includes all necessary reagents and a detailed protocol for streamlined testing.
• Simplified Workflow: Designed for rapid, on-site, and large-scale screening.
