The 3M Coconut Protein Rapid Kit is intended for screening for the presence of coconut proteins in clean-in-place (CIP) final rinse water, environmental swab samples, food ingredients and processed food products. The 3M Coconut Protein Rapid Kit utilizes a lateral flow device (LFD) that is an immunochromatographic test method utilizing antibodies which are specific for the detection of coconut proteins.
Benefits
Coconut Protein Threshold: 2 ppm
Results visible at 11 - ± 1 minute after application of the sample.
Rapid, qualitative immunochromatographic lateral flow test cartridges designed for the detection of allergenic food proteins.
Designed to detect both processed and unprocessed allergen proteins.
Test can accommodate environmental swab, CIP rinse water and food samples.
25 tests per box
3M's signature hook line feature can alert you to a possible false negative due to high amounts of the target protein in a sample. This feature can increase confidence in your allergen testing results.
Positive results are visualized by the presence of three lines: a control line, a hook line and a test line, when the coconut protein is present in the range of concentrations from a lower level of 2 ppm and a higher level of approximately 1.6 mg/mL of coconut protein in saline solution (0.9% sodium chloride).
These limits may vary depending on the matrix tested. Samples containing more than 5% coconut may result in an invalid test which will result in the absence of the hook line and/or test line.
