Recommended extraction procedure for food samples:
1) Grind and mix the test food sample to homogeneity with a contamination-free homogeniser/blender.
2) Put 1g of the homogenised sample into a polypropylene tube and add one pack of Extraction Solution. Then, vortex the capped tube for 30 seconds.
3) Place the capped tube in 90°C water for 10 minutes. Then, place the tube under running water to cool the tube down to ambient temperature. Vortex for 30 seconds.
4) Stand the tube for a few minutes to let the sample settle down, then collect the supernatant as a Sample Extract.
Preparation of test solution:
1) Using a pipette, dispense 900 μL of Diluent into a polypropylene tube.
2) Add 100 μL of Sample Extract to the tube.
3) Mix well to produce the Test Solution.
Assay procedures:
1) Place a Test Stick horizontally and add 200 μL of Test Solution to the Sample Application Slot.
2) Incubate at room temperature for 15 minutes.
Results:
A) Positive: A red-purple line in the test window together with red colour in a confirmation window.
B) Negative: No line in the test window together with a red colour in a confirmation window.
C) Invalid: No colour in the confirmation window.
Further protocols for environmental surfaces and rinse water samples, along with simplified protocols, are available in the Instruction Manual.
