Cow’s milk (Bos taurus) and dairy products are fundamental components of the human diet. Milk from other species such as goats, sheep, and buffalo is also a common source of milk for humans in certain geographical regions.
Milk allergy can manifest with a variety of symptoms, ranging from mild oral allergic reactions or skin rash to severe, life-threatening systemic reactions, namely anaphylaxis or bronchial asthma (IgE- or IgG-mediated). Milk protein allergy can be clinically distinguished from lactose intolerance caused by lactase deficiency.
Milk allergy is one of the most common food allergies, particularly in infants and young children, affecting 0.5%–5% of the population across different age groups and geographical regions.
AlerTox ELISA Casein is an ELISA kit for the detection of bovine milk casein (α, β, γ) in food products, kitchens, and food manufacturing facilities.

Peanut (Arachis hypogaea) is a legume belonging to the Fabaceae family (also known as Leguminosae), which includes beans, peas, green beans, alfalfa, and lupins.
Peanut allergy can manifest with a variety of symptoms, ranging from mild oral allergic reactions or urticaria to severe, life-threatening systemic reactions, namely anaphylaxis or bronchial asthma. Peanut-induced anaphylaxis is considered to have the highest fatality rate among all food allergies. Peanut allergy affects more than 0.5% of children in the general population.
AlerTox Sticks Peanut is an ELISA kit for the quantitative detection of peanut antigen in food products, kitchens, and food manufacturing facilities.
Peanut (Arachis hypogaea) is a legume belonging to the Fabaceae family (also known as Leguminosae), which includes beans, peas, green beans, alfalfa, and lupins.
Peanut allergy can manifest with a variety of symptoms, ranging from mild oral allergic reactions or urticaria to severe, life-threatening systemic reactions, namely anaphylaxis or bronchial asthma. Anaphylaxis caused by peanuts is considered to have the highest fatality rate among all food allergies. Peanut allergy affects more than 0.5% of children in the general population.
AlerTox Sticks Peanut is a rapid immunochromatographic assay for the qualitative detection of peanut antigen in food products and on environmental surfaces.
Assay Time: 10 minutes.
Almond (Prunus dulcis) belongs to the Rosaceae family (the same family as apples, pears, peaches, cherries, plums, and apricots). However, almond allergy is classified as a tree nut allergy.
Almond allergy can manifest with a variety of symptoms, ranging from mild oral allergic reactions or urticaria to severe, life-threatening systemic reactions, including anaphylaxis or bronchial asthma.
AlerTox Sticks Almond is a rapid immunochromatographic assay for the qualitative detection of almond antigen in food products, kitchens, and food manufacturing facilities.
Assay Time: 10 minutes.
Soybean (Glycine max) is a legume belonging to the Fabaceae family (also known as Leguminosae), which includes beans, peas, green beans, alfalfa, and lupins.
Soy allergy can manifest with a variety of symptoms, ranging from mild oral allergic reactions or urticaria to severe, life-threatening systemic reactions, namely anaphylaxis or bronchial asthma. Soybean is also one of the most frequently genetically modified crops and one of the least expensive sources of protein used in the food industry for food formulation and adulteration. The estimated prevalence of soy allergy is approximately 0.1%–0.2% across different populations, with most reported cases occurring in children.
AlerTox Sticks Soy PLUS is a rapid immunochromatographic assay for the qualitative detection of soy antigen in food products, kitchens, and food manufacturing facilities.
Assay Time: 10 minutes.
Sesame is an herbaceous plant belonging to the Pedaliaceae family. The most common species are Sesamum indicum (white sesame) and Sesamum radiatum (black sesame).
Allergy to sesame seeds and sesame-derived products can manifest with a variety of symptoms, ranging from mild oral allergic reactions or urticaria to severe, life-threatening systemic reactions, namely anaphylaxis or bronchial asthma. Sesame allergy is estimated to affect 0.1%–0.9% of the population and is more common in Asian countries. Sensitive individuals may exhibit cross-reactivity with peanuts, walnuts, hazelnuts, rye, and poppy seeds.
AlerTox ELISA Sesame is an ELISA kit for the quantitative detection of sesame antigen in food products, kitchens, and food manufacturing facilities.
Fish protein is considered one of the major food allergens. Due to the increasing use of seafood in the food industry, consumers with fish allergies are at risk of severe reactions or even life-threatening events caused by fish-derived products that are mislabelled or undeclared. Fish allergy can manifest with a variety of symptoms, ranging from mild oral allergic reactions or urticaria to severe, life-threatening systemic reactions, namely anaphylaxis or bronchial asthma.
AlerTox Sticks Fish is a rapid immunochromatographic assay for the qualitative detection of fish antigen in food products, kitchens, and food manufacturing facilities.
Assay Time: 10 minutes.
Cow’s milk (Bos taurus) and dairy products are a fundamental source of human nutrition. Milk from other species, such as goats, sheep, and buffalo, is also a common source of milk for human consumption in certain geographical regions.
Milk allergy can manifest with a variety of symptoms, ranging from mild oral allergic reactions or skin rashes to severe, life-threatening systemic reactions, namely anaphylaxis or bronchial asthma (IgE- or IgG-mediated responses).
Milk protein allergy can be clinically distinguished from lactose intolerance, which is caused by lactase enzyme deficiency.
Milk allergy is one of the most common food allergies, particularly among infants and young children, affecting 0.5%–5% of the population across different age groups and geographical regions.
AlerTox Beta-Lactoglobulin is a rapid test kit for the quantitative detection of BLG antigen in food products, kitchens, and food manufacturing facilities.
Assay Time: 10 minutes.
