Rapidly detect and quantify Tropomyosin as an indicator of presence of Crustacean material in food and environmental samples.

Simplify allergen testing with ELISA Systems™ Crustacean Residue Detection Kit which helps ensure compliance with food product labeling requirements. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay is designed to deliver simple, sensitive, and fast detection and quantification of the Crustacean* material in the food sample. This complete, ready-to-use kit is developed and optimized to specifically detect heat stable protein Tropomyosin in order to avoid false negative results in highly heat-treated samples.

Tropomyosin is a major muscle protein in Crustaceans. It has been identified as the major Shrimp allergen. Molecular cloning experiments on lobsters and crabs have characterized this protein as the common allergen in Crustaceans.1, 2

Use ELISA Systems Crustacean Detection Kit for the detection and quantification of Tropomyosin as an indicator of presence of Crustacean material in food and environmental samples.

  • Fast: Sample preparation to result in under 60 minutes for rapid test turnaround and actions
  • Simple: Ready-to-use liquid reagents and concentrates, plus common handling procedure for all kits, make ELISA Systems Assays easy to implement and run
  • Robust: Ready-to-use liquid controls and allergen-free non-control reagents mean reduced risk of cross contamination that could lead to false-positive results
  • Flexible: Use for qualitative or quantitative testing—a single kit for more applications
  • Sensitive: Detect proteins or protein residues, including heat stable proteins, at low levels for improved assurance of product safety
  • Supported: Our experienced technical team is ready to assist you and help mitigate delays in test reporting


*This assay has been shown to detect Tropomyosin residues from the following species: Penaeus esculentus, Penaeus semisulcatus, Penaeus latisculatus, Penaeus monodon, Penaeus plebejus, Penaeus stylirorostus, Metapenaeus endeavouri, Metapenaeus bennettae, Metapenaeopisis palmensis, Cherax quandricarinatus, Cherax destructor, Scylla serrata, Ovalipes australiensis, Charybdis natator, Charybdis feriata, Portunus sanguinolentus, Thenus orientalis, Panulirus cygnus.

Other Crustacean species not listed here might also be detected with this assay, depending on the level of the Tropomyosin present, the type of the sample, and the processing treatments involved.

All results should be interpreted as part of a HACCP plan for food allergens. Any sample returning a positive result should be regarded as a presumptive result, and confirmation or further testing should be performed.
