Intended use:

RIDASCREEN®FAST Milk is a sandwich enzyme immunoassay to quantify milk proteins in food containing whey, milk or milk powder such as sausages, ice cream, chocolate, bakery goods, cake and bread mix, soups, sauces, dressings and beverages (juice, wine, beer). The antibodies specifically detect caseins as well as β-lactoglobulin of cow’s milk and of sheep’s, goat’s and buffalo’s milk.

Approvals:

The ELISA RIDASCREEN®FAST Milk was approved by the AOAC Performance Tested Methods^SM Program and was assigned PTM Certification No. 101501 by the AOAC Research Institute. The in-house validation data was confirmed by an independent lab. The sandwich ELISA is applicable for the detection of milk protein (casein und b-lactoglobulin) in cookies, chocolate, ice cream, infant formula and sausages.

The assay results are quantitative if the sample contains milk or milk powder. If the milk protein composition of the sample is not known and the milk protein ratio is different than the natural ratio in milk (e.g. a sample primarily consisting of whey), the results may be underestimated. If a quantitative result for caseins and/or β-lactoglobulin is requested, the sample should be tested in the RIDASCREEN®FAST Casein (R4612) and/or the RIDASCREEN®FAST β-lactoglobulin (R4902).

RIDASCREEN®FAST Milk has been certified by the AOAC Research Institute as “Performance Tested Method”.
