Crustacean Allergen Testing

Crustacean shellfish (e.g., shrimp, crab, lobster) are among the top allergens requiring mandatory declaration under regulations. Our laboratory provides highly sensitive detection of crustacean proteins using ELISA and PCR-based assays, capable of identifying trace residues in complex food matrices and processing environments. This testing supports allergen labeling, export compliance, and cross-contact prevention.

Applications:

  • Seafood products (fresh, frozen, RTE)
  • Sauces, soups, and seasoning mixes
  • “Shellfish-free” product verification
  • Swab testing in shared manufacturing lines
