The Hygiena® GlutenTox Pro is designed specifically for commercial kitchens and food manufacturers. It is a quick user-friendly gluten detection kit for foods, drinks and surfaces. These precise kits can provide you with rapid, accurate results without the use of expensive lab equipment. This semi-quantitative tool is to avoid accidental gluten contamination in foods and on surfaces. The GlutenTox Pro contains the G12 antibody which specifically recognises the 33-mer peptide. This is the gluten fraction that triggers a reaction in those with celiac disease. The G12 is capable of reacting to other epitomes which are found in other toxic prolamins and can react to similar sequences present in other gliadins outside the 33-mer of the a-gliadin. GlutenTox Pro is a quick test for precise gluten detection in food, beverages, and on surfaces. Specially designed for gluten-free food manufacturers and handlers who need rapid, accurate results without having to use expensive lab equipment. It is a semi-quantitative tool to avoid accidental gluten contamination in foods and on surfaces.
