Principle of Assay
Zearalenone Strip Test Kit (A327264) uses a competitive colloidal gold based format. The sample is added to the test well to allow the Zearalenone binding protein on the gold particles to engage with any Zearalenone present in the sample. Any gold particles that are not complexed with Zearalenone present in the sample will bind to the Zearalenone imprinted at the Test line (T-line), forming a signal (red line) at that position. If the Zearalenone binding protein on the gold particle has engaged with Zearalenone present in the sample, the gold particle will flow past the T-line and reach the Control line (C-line).
