Validation of the Reveal® 3-D for Gluten Assay for Detection of Gluten in Clean-in-Place Rinses and Stainless Steel Environmental Surfaces: AOAC Performance Tested MethodSM 122201.

Background: Reveal® 3-D for Gluten is an immunochromatographic assay for the qualitative detection of gluten in environmental samples. The test uses monoclonal antibodies reactive to prolamins in wheat.

Objective: The objective of the study was to validate the Reveal 3-D test for detection of gluten in clean-in-place rinse and swabs from a stainless steel surface.

Validation of the Reveal® 3-D for Peanut Lateral Flow Test: AOAC Performance Tested MethodSM 111901.

Background: Reveal® 3-D for Peanut is an immunochromatographic, lateral flow test for qualitative detection of peanut residue in food manufacturing and food preparation settings. The test can detect low ppm levels of peanut in clean-in-place (CIP) rinses and in swabs from environmental surfaces and can serve as a tool in managing allergen risk.

Objective: The objective of the study was to validate the lateral flow method for detection of peanut in CIP rinses, specifically water, peroxyacetic acid/hydrogen peroxide, and quaternary ammonium compound rinses, and in swabs taken from stainless steel and plastic surfaces.

Development and Validation of a Quantitative ELISA for the Detection of Almond Residues in Foods.

Neogen Corp. has developed Veratox for Almond Allergen for use in the quantitative analysis and screening of almond protein residues in food products, such as cookies, crackers, chocolate bars, cereals, beverages, and clean-in-place rinses. Quantitation with Veratox for Almond Allergen ranges from 2.
