Soybeans are very important part of Asian foods and can be eaten fresh, processed, fermented or as cooking oil. Some patients can safely ingest soybean oil and soy lecithin, but extremely sensitive patients will respond to a relatively small amount of soy proteins. Many countries including the European Union, the United States, New Zealand, Australia, and Taiwan all have regulations about food allergen labeling.

 

Agitest Food Allergen Rapid Test - Soy is an immunochromatographic test for the detection of soy in food. This test is suitable for the detection of unknown ingredient or ambiguous labeling in processed food. This test is also suitable for quality control in food processing plants specifically with processing stages and final product.

All reagents required for the test are included in the test kit. Results are interpreted visually. The tests can be used with Agitest Environmental Swab Kit (Product Number: SR00013220) to validate and verify allergen sanitation procedures in manufacturing and analytical environment.
