Neogen/ 3M Clean-Trace Surface Protein (Allergen) ALLTEC60
60 test swabs per case.
Residues remaining on surfaces indicate poor cleaning and could contain potentially allergenic proteins, which could lead to product contamination.
Clean-Trace Surface Protein (Allergen) Swabs are a simple method of checking for removal of protein residues after cleaning. As the majority of allergens are proteins, if a surface is found to be protein-free, it is also free of protein-based allergens.
Simple and very sensitive swab test for the detection of protein residues on surfaces and in solution. Requires a Heating Block or similar, set to 131°F (55°C) for 15 minutes.
Checking for removal of protein residues after cleaning can quickly identify contamination. As the majority of allergens are proteins, if a surface is found to be virtually protein-free, it indicates low risk of allergens being present. Validated for a range of allergenic proteins, including egg, milk, gluten, soy and peanut.
- Helps to reduce the risk of a food safety incident - food residues could contain allergens and potentially contaminate allergen-free product.
- Detects as little as 3 micrograms of protein on surfaces and in solution.
- Validated for a range of allergenic proteins, including egg, milk, gluten, soy and peanut.
- Visual reading of a color change indicates the presence of detectable levels of protein.
- Fast results allow immediate corrective action.
- Can be integrated into your Allergen Management Program - risk areas can be monitored for cleaning effectiveness.
- As an additional benefit, it can help to reduce the risk of bacterial contamination food residues on surfaces provide nutrients for spoilage or pathogenic bacteria to thrive.
- Clear multiple allergens in one test.
