Lateral Flow Brazil Nut
Intended use:
The Lateral Flow Brazil Nut assay is used for the qualitative detection of Brazil Nut residues in surface samples got from e.g. production lines. The assay is also applicable for food samples. The assay is applied for the detection of small amounts of Brazil Nut contaminations.
General Information:
Brazil Nut contaminations in food possibly elicit hypersensitivity in sensitive persons. Food production lines have to be free of residues to prevent these allergic reactions. The effectiveness of cleaning can be verified by using the Lateral Flow Brazil Nut Swabbing method.

SureFood® ALLERGEN Brazil Nut – NEW
Intended use:
The test detects brazil nut DNA according to directive (EC) 1169/2011 qualitatively and / or quantitatively. Each reaction contains an internal amplification control.
For the quantitative determination the use of the laboratory reference material SureFood® QUANTARD Allergen 40 containing 40 mg brazil nut / kg food sample and a detection system including a standard dilution is required.
For DNA preparation, the use of SureFood® PREP Advanced, protocol 1, is recommended.
General Information:
The real-time PCR assay can be used with established real-time PCR instruments capable of detection of at least two fluorescence dyes. Internal validation was performed on Roche LightCycler® 2.0, Roche LightCycler® 480 II, Roche cobas® z 480 Analyzer, Qiagen Rotor-Gene Q, Applied Biosystems 7500, Bio-Rad CFX96, Bio Molecular Systems MIC, LTF MyGo Pro, AriaDx and Agilent Mx3005P.
| Art. No. | S3617 |
|---|---|
| Test Format | Test-Kit with 100* reactions |
| Sample Preparation | 1. DNA preparation, e.g. SureFood® PREP ALLERGEN 2. Preparation of Allergen-PCR mix 3. Pipetting of samples and PCR mix 4. Check PCR protocol settings 5. Start PCR run |
| Detection Limit | Depending on the sample matrix, processing grade, DNA preparation and DNA contant, the detection is limited to < 5 DNA copies / ≤ 0.4 ppm. |
| Shelf life | 12 month |
| Additional Information | The detection system system can be used on all available real-time PCR cyclers.ABI Prism Eppendorf realplex iCycler Rotorgene LightCycler |
