Abstrakt: Background: Reveal® 3-D for Gluten is an immunochromatographic assay for the qualitative detection of gluten in environmental samples. The test uses monoclonal antibodies reactive to prolamins in wheat.
Objective: The objective of the study was to validate the Reveal 3-D test for detection of gluten in clean-in-place rinse and swabs from a stainless steel surface.
Methods: Elements of the study included food selectivity and interference testing, matrix testing, an assay robustness study, and reagent stability/lot-to-lot consistency testing. Wheat flour was used as the spiking material for all matrixes.
Results: In selectivity and interference testing, nine target matrixes all tested positive and 36 of 39 non-target matrixes tested negative. Almond flour, sesame flour, and cornstarch produced positive results as 100% commodities; reactivity can be eliminated with dilution or by testing without use of food extraction buffer, which is not a standard part of the environmental testing method. With a gluten spike at 9.3 mg/kg, chestnut flour, guar gum, and xanthan gum as 100% commodities inhibited the ability of the assay to detect gluten when tested without dilution. In quaternary ammonium clean-in-place rinse and swabs from stainless steel, 100% positive results were obtained at levels of 2.8 mg/kg and 4.7 µg/100 cm2, respectively. Results of independent laboratory testing of swabs from stainless steel supported those of internal trials. Robustness testing showed that introducing variations to three operating parameters simultaneously had no adverse effect on assay performance. In the reagent stability study, data supported kit expiration dating of 11 months.
Conclusion: Results of the current study show that the Reveal test is an accurate and reliable method for qualitative detection of gluten in select clean-in-place rinse and environmental samples.
Highlights: The Reveal test was able to detect gluten at levels of 2.8 ppm in clean-in-place rinse and 4.7 µg/100 cm2 in swabs from stainless steel.
