RIDASCREEN®FAST Casein
Product Code R4602
Bruksområde:
RIDASCREEN®FAST Casein er en sandwich enzyme immunoassay (Elisa) for kvantitativ analyse av casein I næringsmidler som bakervarer, sjokolade, pølser, iskrem, vin og andre drikkevarer.
Generell informasjon:
Cow's milk contains 3.2 % proteins which consist of 10 % β-lactoglobulin (leading protein of whey) and 80 % caseins. The most important allergen is β-lactoglobulin (especially for children) while the caseins become to be dominant later in adults. Casein (lat. Caseus = cheese) is a rough flaked curdling protein, which forms micells in the milk and precipitates under acidic conditions.
The group of caseins consists of the α-caseins, the β-caseins, the κ-casein, and the γ-casein (proteolytic protein fragment of β-caseins by the milk protease plasmin). κ-casein is cleaved into a hydrophobic (para κ-casein) and into a water soluble polar component (macropeptid) by proteolysis, e.g. by using lab ferment.
Milk can be present as an ingredient or as a contamination in raw and processed
food products. According to the EU Directive 2003/89/EG from 10th November 2003, milk must be declared as an ingredient on food labels as it can induce allergic reactions. Whey (β-lactoglobulin) or caseinates (e.g. in sausages) are often added to food products Therefore it is recommended to determine casein in food.
