Fish protein is 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 or even fatal reactions caused by mislabeled or undeclared fish-derived ingredients in food products. 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 ELISA Fish is a rapid immunochromatographic assay for the qualitative detection of fish 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. 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.
Egg proteins are considered one of the major food allergens.
Egg allergy can cause severe and even life-threatening immune reactions, including anaphylaxis, acute bronchial asthma, severe atopic dermatitis, and gastroenteritis. Eggs are widely used in food products such as ice cream, noodles, pasta, sauces, and wine. Trace amounts of egg proteins may remain on food-contact surfaces used during food processing. Furthermore, some vaccines may contain small amounts of egg proteins, posing a potential risk to individuals with egg allergy.
AlerTox ELISA Egg is an ELISA kit for the quantitative detection of egg antigen in food products, kitchens, and food manufacturing facilities.
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, namely anaphylaxis or bronchial asthma.
AlerTox Sticks Almond is an ELISA kit for the semi-quantitative detection of almond antigen in food products, kitchens, and food manufacturing facilities.
Crustaceans are among the most widely consumed seafood worldwide. In some countries, crustaceans and crustacean-derived products constitute an important part of the daily diet. Crustacean 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. Crustacean allergy is among the top 10 food allergies in certain geographical regions, although no estimate of its global prevalence is available. The consumption of crustaceans is prohibited by certain religions.
AlerTox ELISA Crustacean is an ELISA kit for the quantitative detection of crustacean antigen in food products, kitchens, and food manufacturing facilities.
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.
