ZEULAB PRODUCTS
ZEULAB FOOD AND WATER TESTING KITS
Antibiotics in milk: Eclipse
Antibiotics are used for prevention and treatment of animals having bacterial infections of the udder (mastitis). Milk is examined for antibiotics residues because they pose a hazard to consumers and could cause production problems of fermented milk products.
Eclipse is a microbial growth inhibition test that can be used for detection of antibiotic residues in milk. It is a very simple and ready-to-use test, with a sensitivity complying with EU-MRLs.
Adulteration Kit: IC Bovino & IC Caprino
The unknown mixture of milk from different species is a common fraud in dairy sector. Sheep milk is more expensive than goat or cow's milk and tends to be adulterated with those of lower cost. This adulteration is important, not only for economical reasons, but also because unknown milk mixtures produce changes in the final sensory properties and reduce the product quality.
IC kits are lateral flow tests for species identification of milk and cheese.
Pathogens: Microlab
Salmonella and Listeria are pathogenic bacteria in food that cause severe diseases in humans.
Microlab DETECT is a simple and fast method to detect Salmonella and Listeria in food. A revolutionary system that takes the laboratory into a single device.
Pathogens: Microfast E. coli O157
Some strains Escherichia coli can cause harm to the human body. The most common of these strains is E. coli O157:H7, which can be commonly found in raw/undercooked beef, raw/unpasteurized milk, and
sewage-contaminated water. Infection by the E. coli O157:H7 bacteria may lead to the acute disease hemorrhagic colitis and/or the chronic disease hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS).
MICROFAST E. coli 0157, intended to detect E. coli in
food, will allow to take decisions quicker and reduce the assay cost.
Allergens: Proteon ELISA
Food allergies pose public health issues. Many countries (USA, Canada, Japan, EU, etc.) are approving new allergen laws on what information must be provided to consumers regarding the presence of allergens in food.
The PROTEON ELISA food testing methods allow a quantitative determination of allergens in food and on working surfaces.
Toxins: Microcystest
Microcystins are a group of hepatotoxins produced by cyanobacteria during and after blooms in water bodies. Consumption of contaminated water with these toxins can promote cancer. The toxicity of microcystins is associated with the inhibition of protein phosphatases 1 and 2A enzymes (PP1 &PP2A), which leads to hepatocyte dysfunction.
MicroCystest is a kit based on the inhibition of the PP2A activity by microcystins, thus is able to detect all potential toxic microcystins present in the sample
Toxins: Saxitest
Human consumption of shellfish contaminated with saxitoxins produced Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning (PSP), which causes symptoms from numbness to fatal respiratory paralysis. The European Union Regulation (EC) No. 853/2004 stipulates that a kilogram of live bivalve molluscs must not contained more than 800 micrograms of saxitoxins.
SaxiTest is an immunoenzymatic test performed in a 96 microtitier plate for detection of saxitoins in shellfish such as mussles or oysters.
Toxins: Okatest
Human consumption of shellfish contaminated with OA-toxins group (OA, DTX1, DTX2 and its esters) causes Diarrheic Shellfish Poisoning (DSP). Inhibition of serine/threonine protein phosphatases (PP1 & PP2A) activity by these toxins is assumed to be responsible for diarrheic disorders.
OkaTest is a ready-to-use colorimetric phosphatase inhibition assay for quantification of OA-toxins and is performed in a 96-well microtiter plate applicable to shellfish such as mussels, clams, oysters and scallops.
