Test Kappa

Its Scientific Foundations

The main new feature of Test Kappa is the development of an antibody able to bind a specific amino acid sequence of k-casein B. In fact, it binds the amino acid regions 136 and 145, which differentiate casein A from casein B.
The popular ELISA test technique, based on a measurable colour reaction, is used to analyse the milk samples.
On the basis of the colour intensity, the quantity of k-casein B in the milk samples can be assessed.
