Hygiena · Allergen and protein-residue control
AlerTox / GlutenTox / AllerSnap
A toolkit for different levels of allergen control: rapid AlerTox and GlutenTox tests, quantitative ELISA and AllerSnap protein-residue screening. Selection follows the target allergen, matrix and required result type.
Quick decision
Is this test right for your control programme?
Consider it when
Facilities sharing lines across recipes, checking incoming ingredients or supporting specific allergen-free claims
We clarify before quoting
Matrix and sampling point, target, decision threshold, test volume, compatible reader, control points, frequency and approved procedure.
Another test may be better when
The matrix, analytical target, required limit, time to result, readout format or approved procedure differs.
Best suited for
Facilities sharing lines across recipes, checking incoming ingredients or supporting specific allergen-free claims
Capabilities and controlled parameters
- AlerTox Sticks and GlutenTox are rapid lateral-flow tests for stated allergens and matrices
- AlerTox/GlutenTox ELISA provides quantitative laboratory results
- AllerSnap indicates total protein residue and does not identify a specific allergen
- Detection limit, extraction, timing and scope differ by kit
- Use the required positive/negative controls and interpretation rules for each batch
- Interpret results alongside the allergen map, zoning, recipe changeovers and corrective-action procedure

Implementation considerations
Test implementation starts with the matrix, sampling point, analytical target and decision rule. Before supply, LabLog checks reader and consumable compatibility, control requirements, frequency, training, storage and result documentation.
How LabLog supports the project
- 01Define the matrix, sampling point and target
- 02Check the decision threshold and applicable method
- 03Agree the reader, tests, controls and stock level
- 04Prepare storage, training and a working instruction
- 05Verify a trial cycle before routine use
