Is Your Laboratory Ready to Change the Game in
Food Allergen Detection?
Manufacturers want to protect their The SCIEX Food Allergen Screening
product and their reputation. One way to Assay delivers:
do so is to have a reliable food allergen
testing method. This serves as a critical Increased Throughput
precautionary measure to minimize the risk Detect 12 key allergens in different
of allergen contamination in the food chain. types of matrices at once
There are several techniques to screen food Enhanced Selectivity
allergens. However, most workflows do Minimize cross-reactivity or
not compare to the power of an LC-MS/ matrix effects using peptide
MS assay, which can simultaneously analyze mass detection
multiple allergens in food products.
Improved Accuracy
Identify allergens levels as low
as 10 ppm or as high as 500
ppm
“Traditional methods such as ELISA and PCR for allergen analysis come with several
challenges, including detection accuracy in processed products or the costliness of testing
for several allergens in the same sample. LC-MS/MS has the potential to overcome these
challenges, which is just one reason why it is being adopted by multiple governments and
private laboratories for allergen detection.”
