The 3M™ Fish Protein Rapid Kit is intended for screening for the presence of fish proteins in clean-in-place (CIP) final rinse water, environmental swab samples, food ingredients and processed food products.
The 3M Fish Protein Rapid Kit utilises a lateral flow device (LFD) that is an immunochromatographic test method utilising antibodies which are specific for the detection of fish proteins. Positive results are visualised by the presence of three lines: a control line, a hook line and a test line, when the fish protein is present in the range of concentrations from a lower level of 1 ppm. This limit may vary depending on the matrix tested. The upper limit of detection has not been determined for specific fish species. Samples containing high amounts of fish protein may result in an invalid test which will result in the absence of the hook line and/or test line.
Storage Instructions - The 3M™ Rapid Allergen Test Kits should be stored at 2 to 8C and have a shelf life of 24 months.
