Product catalog summary
Intended Use: The TotalTarget Kit for Gluten Detection is designed to detect and quantify gluten in corn and grain products, with a quantitation limit of 4 ppm and a detection range up to 35 ppm using the QuickScan System.
Important Notes: Use a dedicated grinder to prevent contamination and ensure all equipment is thoroughly cleaned. The QuickScan Software Version 5.6 or later is required. Store test strips at 4°C and only remove those needed for immediate use.
Test Procedure: The procedure involves collecting, grinding, and extracting a sample to solubilize gluten residues. The extract is diluted and run on a test strip, which is then read by the QuickScan reader for quantitative results.
Items Not Provided: Essential equipment such as the QuickScan System, grinder, digital scale, and other accessories are not included in the kit but are available separately.
Kit Contents: The kit includes TotalTarget Strips, reaction and dilution tubes, pipette tips, extraction and dilution buffers, and a Multi-Matrix Barcode Card.
Precautions: Handle EB17 Dissolvable Pouches with care as they contain flammable and irritant powder. Follow all safety guidelines and dispose of materials according to regulations.
Sample Preparation and Extraction: Samples should be ground to a specific consistency and extracted using the provided buffers. The extraction process varies slightly for different sample types.
Running the Test: The diluted sample extract should be tested within 5 minutes. Use new pipette tips and reaction tubes for each test to avoid contamination.
Storage and Cross-reactivity: Store the kit refrigerated and protect from extreme temperatures. Certain flours and ingredients do not interfere with gluten detection at specified concentrations.
Notes: The kit provides quantitative results for gluten detection in specified grains. It is not validated for other grains. Proper use of the kit is essential for accurate results.
Warranty: EnviroLogix provides a limited warranty against defects in materials and workmanship, valid until the product's expiration date.
Warranty and Representations: EnviroLogix provides sole representations of its products through its published catalogues and product literature. No other statements, unless signed by an authorized officer, are valid. The warranty does not cover damages from shipping, handling, accidents, improper use, or defects in non-EnviroLogix products. The warranty is limited to repair or replacement of defective products and excludes liability for incidental or consequential damages.
License and Trademarks: The kit is developed using proprietary reagents. EnviroLogix and associated logos are trademarks of EnviroLogix Inc.
Contact Information: For technical support, contact EnviroLogix at their Portland, ME address, via phone, fax, or email.
Product Usage Instructions: The document provides detailed instructions for preparing and testing various matrices such as corn, rice, sorghum, soy, and masa flour. Key steps include sample preparation, shaking, dilution, clarification, and incubation. Specific instructions are provided for each matrix type, including the use of distilled or deionized water and the necessity of tube acclimation under certain conditions.

Catalog AT-Gluten-C-1

• 10 TotalTarget Strips packed in a moisture-resistant canister • 10 reaction tubes (clear) • 10 dilution tubes (blue) • Multi-Matrix Barcode Card -kit lot specific •Venvirologix Total Target™ Kit* for Gluten Catalog AT-Gluten-C Part #13028 The TotalTarget Kit for Gluten Detection is designed to quickly extract and quantitate gluten in corn, corn meal, corn grits, and corn flour; masa flour; rice; sorghum; and soy.The TotalTarget Kit will detect gluten protein with the limit of quantitation at 4 ppm, when used in conjunction with the QuickScan System. The range of this kit detects gluten up to 35 ppm. • It is strongly recommended that you use a dedicated grinder for your Gluten testing that isn't used to grind gluten containing grains (Wheat, Rye, Barley, Triticale) to avoid potential contamination. If you are using a blender for grinding, make sure to use thoroughly cleaned cups, blades, gaskets, and collars. • Before testing, the enclosed Multi-Matrix Barcode Card (MMBC) must be scanned just once for each kit lot to upload information to the QuickScan. The software will prompt users to select a Matrix Group (MG) before proceeding to the result screen. • QuickScan Software Version 5.6 or later is required. • Store test strips at 4°C (39.2°F) as much as possible. Only remove test strips needed and securely reseal the storage canister before putting back into refrigeration. A composite sample is collected, ground, and extracted to solubilize any gluten residues present. The extract is diluted into a buffer before being run on the test strip. Each strip has an absorbent pad at each end. The sample extract travels up the test strip and is absorbed into the larger pad at the top of the strip. At the end of the reaction time, the strip is cut at the top of the arrow tape, the bottom pads are discarded, and the strip is inserted into the QuickScan reader to obtain traceable, quantitative results.

TotalTarget Gluten Detailed instructions for use of the QuickScan System are supplied with each unit and can also be found at www.envirologix.com/support. The lot-specific Multi-Matrix Barcode Card (MMBC) must be scanned into the system prior to testing. Strips inserted into the reader are read by touching or clicking on the “Read Test” button on the screen. The “Select Matrix Groups” screen will appear if more than one barcode was scanned into the system from the MMBC. Select the group that displays the matrix run. Results are then recorded in an electronic worksheet, allowing each user to report...

TotalTarget Gluten Note: Scanning the Multi-Matrix Barcode Card once per kit lot is required. The QuickScan software will prompt users to select a Matrix Group (MG) before proceeding to the result screen. 1. Place the strip into the reaction vial containing the final sample extract. The arrow tape on the end of the strip should point into the reaction vial. 2. Sample extract will travel up the strip (flow may not be visible immediately—this is expected and normal). 3. Allow the strip to develop for 5 minutes. Immediately cut off and discard the bottom section of the strip covered by the arrow...
