Bioo Scientific Offers Improved Nitrofuran Screening Kits for Food Samples
8 Feb 2013Product news
Bioo Scientific’s has dramatically improved the analysis of nitrofurans in feed, fish, shrimp, meat, honey, milk, serum and urine with the line of MaxSignal® ELISAs. These kits combine the fastest ELISA protocols, with the highest sensitivity (0.025 ppb or below), the broadest range of standards and simplified sample protocols to meet the demanding needs of customers worldwide.
These kits include the MaxSignal® Nitrofurantoin (AHD) ELISA Kit, the MaxSignal® Furaltadone (AMOZ) ELISA Kit, the MaxSignal® Furazolidone (AOZ) ELISA Kit and the MaxSignal® Nitrofurazone (SEM) ELISA Kit. All of these kits incorporate a single extraction protocol that can be used for testing samples for the detection of nitrofuran antibiotics. This allows our customers to reduce the time and costs associated with sample extraction. Users can take one sample, perform one extraction and test for AHD, SEM, AMOZ and AOZ.
The MaxSignal Nitrofuran ELISAs are the latest additions to Bioo Scientific’s line of ELISA and strip tests for the detection of antibodies in food and feed samples. These kits are all manufactured to the international quality standard ISO 9001:2008 (ISO CI#: SARA-2009-CA-0114-02-A).

Mass SpectrometryMass spectrometry (MS) is a powerful analytical technique used to identify and quantify molecules based on the mass-to-charge ratio of gas-phase ions. It provides detailed information about the structure, composition, and properties of compounds and is widely used across fields such as environmental monitoring, materials science, drug discovery and development, food and beverage testing, and wider chemical research. Key MS techniques include tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LS-MS) and inductively coupled plasma (ICP-MS). Choosing from these wide range of techniques and technologies can be a daunting task, so keep up to date with scientific applications, performance expectations, and customer reviews here all in one place.

UV-Visible SpectroscopyUltraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectrophotometers are used to measure the interaction of UV and visible light with a sample, including transmission, reflectance & absorbance. The two major instrument classes are single-beam or double-beam spectrophotometers. More specialized equipment includes colorimeters, spectroradiometers and refractometers. Portable and microvolume spectrophotometers are also available. For the modular spectroscopy lab, explore a range of light sources for combination with a spectrograph/spectrometer and optics.

Select specific antigen reactivity, high specific affinity, low non-specific binding, monoclonal or polyclonal, primary or secondary antibodies and associated conjugates such as an enzyme or dye for visualization.ELISAEnzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA), also known as enzyme immunoassays (EIA), are used for the detection and quantification of proteins, peptides and antibodies in a sample. ELISA often comes in kit format, with pre-selected antibody pairs to detect specific proteins or biomarkers of diseases such as diabetes and obesity, or cardiovascular and neurological disorders. Detection is made possible with chemiluminescent, fluorescent or colorimetric substrates and detection instruments such as microplate / ELISA readers. Other kits available include: Enzyme-linked immunospot (ELISPOT) assays for the quantification of protein-producing cells and chemiluminescent immunoassays (CLIA) kits.

It is consumed by infant mammals to provide nutrients from the mother. In 2008, the Chinese milk scandal saw the unlawful adulteration of powdered milk with melamine.UrineThe analysis of urine is important in medicinal, anti-doping, forensic and life sciences applications. The ability to evaluate what someone has ingested through their urine enables fast detection and diagnosis of certain illnesses. ImmunoassayImmunoassays are laboratory tests that utilize antibody-antigen interactions to detect specific substances. They are widely used in diagnostics for detecting diseases, drug testing, and environmental monitoring. These assays offer rapid, sensitive, and precise detection of biomarkers, making them invaluable in clinical and research labs.
