APPLICATIONS AND USERS
ASSAY PROCEDURE
TEST PRINCIPLE
Proteon Milk is an ELISA sandwich for the detection of soy, based on the binding of β-conglicinin, present in the samples or standards, to a specific antibody immobilized onto the surface of the wells. This specific binding can be visualized later by applying an enzyme-antibody conjugate. The enzyme will react with a specific substrate and a colorimetric substrate will develop. The quantity of β-conglicinin in the sample or standard will be directly proportional to the intensity of colour in the final product.
TECHNICAL DATA
- Limit of detection: 0.03 ppm of β-conglicinina; equivalent to 0.09 ppm of soy protein.
- Limit of quantification: 0.06 ppm of β-conglicinin; equivalent to 0.19 ppm of soy protein.
- Assay time: 90 min.
