Bioo Scientific has launched its Maxsignal trifluralin Elisa kit to screen meat and fish samples for contamination from the herbicide trifluralin.
Trifluralin is a selective, pre-emergence dinitroaniline herbicide commonly used to control grassy and broadleaf weeds.
It can persist in soils for many months after it is used and has been shown to be highly toxic to aquatic animals.
The Maxsignal trifluralin Elisa test kit offers food safety analysts a sensitive and cost-effective alternative to mass spectrometry assays for detecting trifluralin in food.
With a detection limit of 0.4ppb for meat and fish samples, the Maxsignal trifluralin Elisa test kit allows for the accurate detection quantitation of trifluralin.
This kit also offers highly reproducible results and a recovery rate of >75 per cent using the trifluralin extraction buffer supplied in the kit.
