Description
The Patulin ELISA is an immunoassay for the detection of the mycotoxin Patulin, that commonly affects pome fruits (apples, pears). This test is suitable for the quantitative and/or qualitative detection of Patulin in contaminated samples including apple juice, apple cider, applesauce and orange juice.
For juice processors, infant food producers and food laboratories requiring faster turnaround times and quantitative test results for Patulin, a harmful mycotoxin found in fruits, fruit juices and more.Patulin [4-hydroxy-4H-furo[3.2c]pyran-2(6H)-one] is a toxic polyketide lactone metabolite produced mainly by numerous Penicillium, Aspergillus, and Byssochlamys fungal species. Although it can occur in infected fruits, grains, and other foods, the main route of patulin exposure is ingesting infected apples and some of its derivatives, such as juices and compotes. The Joint FAO/WHO (Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations/World Health Organization) Committee of Experts on Food Additives (JECFA) established in 1995 a provisional maximum tolerable daily intake (PMTDI) for patulin of 0.4 μg/kg (ppb) of body weight/day. Based on this recommendation, the European Union has established maximum allowed patulin levels of 50 µg/kg (ppb) for juices, 25 µg/kg (ppb) for solid apples, and 10 µg/kg (ppb) for foodstuffs for children's consumption.
The Patulin ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) 96 micro-well test kits help identify patulin contamination in juice production on-site and can benefit juice companies by saving time and costs for the quality and fast control of products through the entire juice production/food chain supporting informed decision-making.
Key Benefits of Patulin ELISA Analysis
- Rapid, laboratory-based analysis - answers in 3-4 hours for up to 41 samples
- Applications for apple juice, apple cider, applesauce and orange juice (contact us for additional fruit juice/products)
- Test Kit Range – 7.0 ppb to 300 ppb
- Low per test cost
- Simple sample extraction
- Highest quality antibody with excellent affinity, specificity
- Improves turnaround by eliminating delays associated with sample shipment for offsite analysis
