Lupin ELISA Kit SENSISpec 96 Well Allergen Test

The SENSISpec Lupin ELISA kit represents a highly sensitive detection system specifically designed for lupin allergen quantification in sausages, bakery products, potato-based products, ketchup, and aqueous matrices. With excellent cross-reactivity, the assay effectively detects all commercially relevant lupin species. Lupin, belonging to the legume family, contains protein fractions of 35-45% in seeds. Certain proteins within the alpha-, beta-, and gamma-conglutin fractions are known allergens exhibiting cross-reactivity with soy and peanut allergens. Due to increasing use of lupin flour as a food ingredient—particularly in specialty and dietary products for milk-allergic consumers, vegetarians, and celiac patients—reliable detection methods are essential. Three sweet lupin species (Lupinus albus, Lupinus angustifolius, Lupinus luteus) dominate food production applications.
