REAGEN™ Beta-Lactam ELISA Test Kit is a competitive enzyme immunoassay for the quantitative analysis of beta-lactams including ampicillin, penicillin G, amoxicillin, cloxacillin, oxacillin in milk, urine, tissue (liver, kidney, and muscle), serum, and plasma samples. REAGEN™ Beta-lactam ELISA Test Kit enables international and government regulatory agencies, food manufacturers and processors, as well as quality assurance organizations, to detect beta-lactam containing antibiotics to satisfy customer concerns about food safety.
The unique features of the kit are:
High recovery (75-105%), low-cost rapid sample prep protocol (10 minutes - 1 hour)
High sensitivity: 0.4 ng/gram = 0.4 ppb (parts per billion).
High reproducibility (interplate and intraplate CV typically 8%)
Rapid assay protocol (less than 2 hours to process 40 samples in duplicate)
Procedure Overview
The method is based on a competitive colorimetric ELISA assay. The drug of interest (beta-lactam antibiotic) has been co
