Real-Time PCR Detection of Allergens (Soy, Milk, Peanut) in Foods

Real-time PCR detection of allergens is a critical method used to ensure food safety and compliance with regulations governing the labeling and marketing of food products. Soy, milk, and peanut are some of the most common allergens that can trigger severe allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. This service ensures that food manufacturers meet stringent regulatory requirements by providing accurate and reliable detection of these allergens.

The process involves extracting DNA from samples collected from various stages of production, including raw materials, intermediate products, and finished goods. Once extracted, the DNA is subjected to a series of steps designed to amplify specific segments associated with soy, milk, and peanut genes using real-time PCR technology. This technique allows for precise quantification down to parts per million (ppm), ensuring minimal contamination levels.

The primary advantage of this method lies in its sensitivity; it can detect even trace amounts of allergens that might otherwise go undetected through other methods like ELISA or chromatography. By leveraging advanced laboratory equipment and experienced personnel, Eurolab ensures consistent results across all batches tested. Additionally, our services comply with international standards such as ISO 17025 and IEC 62793-1, further validating the accuracy and reliability of each result produced.

Compliance is essential in today's competitive market where consumer trust plays a crucial role in brand reputation. Our real-time PCR service helps companies maintain high standards while avoiding costly recalls due to non-compliance issues. With rigorous quality control measures in place, Eurolab guarantees accurate detection and reporting, helping businesses stay ahead of regulatory changes.

Our team specializes in providing customized solutions tailored specifically for clients operating within the clinical & healthcare testing sector. Whether you're conducting internal audits or preparing documentation for third-party inspections, our expertise ensures peace of mind knowing that every aspect of your allergen management strategy has been thoroughly evaluated and validated.

  • Compliance with Regulatory Requirements: Ensures adherence to local and international regulations regarding food safety and labeling laws.
  • Accurate Quantification: Detects even minute traces of allergens, ensuring strict compliance standards are met.
