FosfaMilk Test - Colorimetric kit
The new semiquantitative test for the determination of alkaline phosphatase
FosfaMilk Test is a colorimetric assay based on a chemical reaction which develops between the Alkaline Phosphatase enzyme, naturally present in raw milk but absent after a correct pasteurization or UHT treatment, and a specific chromogenic substrate that allows to determine the presence of the enzyme in the sample.
The European Community commission established a residual Alkaline Phosphatase activity of 350 mU/L as the maximum acceptable level of this enzyme in correctly pasteurized/sterilized milk, according to CE 1664/2006 Regulation.
This kit has been designed for the accurate and specific determination of Alkaline Phosphatase in all kinds of milk and whey samples with a test sensitivity of 200 mU/L, without the need of micropipettes, spoons or additional chemicals or consumables, but only needing an incubator or waterbath at 37°C. FosfaMilk can also analyze cream and butter samples after a very easy pretreatment.
Technical features:
- Easy-to-use kit based on test strips
- Smart format: 50-test box
- Results within 60 minutes on milk and whey samples from every species
- Applicable on cream and butter samples after a quick defatting process
- No need of chemical reagents, micropipettes or dedicated consumables
- Incubation: 1 hour at 37°C in every kind of thermostat or waterbath
- Easy and clear interpretation of results by eye: no reading device is required
- Semiquantitative interpretation based on the color intensity of the test strip
- High sensitivity: 200 mU/L of Alkaline Phosphatase
- Long shelf life: 12 months after the production date
