Product Description
Histamine is a biogenic amine naturally present in many foods. It is also a contaminant mostly found in fishes, such as tuna, mackerel, kingfish and bonito, as well as other seafood products when they are improperly handled or stored. The consumption of foods containing high levels of histamine may lead to an allergy-like food poisoning. Therefore, monitoring histamine levels is essential for ensuring food safety and preventing foodborne illnesses, maintaining product quality.
The FSTest Histamine Rapid Test Kit is based onsandwich lateral flow immunochromatography assay. The test cassette has a testing window for the observation of assay running and result reading. The testing window has an invisible T (test) zoneand a C (control) zone before running the assay. When the treatedsample was applied into the sample hole on the device, the liquid will laterally flow through the surface of the test strip and react withthe pre-coated recombinant antigens. The intensity of color on the T test line has an opposite correspondence with the histamineconcentration in the sample. The C line should always appear after a sample is applied, which indicates a valid result. By comparing thesignal intensity between the T line and C line, the device canindicate the presence of histamine in the sample.
