Recently the presence of allergens in foods has become a much more high profile issue. Particularly prevalent is the, sometimes, severe allergic reaction suffered in response to ingestion of nuts. This has led to many companies labeling their products with a "may contain nuts" warning.
HKDNA have developed highly specific PCR based detection methods aimed at identifying many of these common allergy causing food products which may be contaminating an otherwise safe product. Our service offers a fast and reliable identification of allergy causing foods such as peanut, Brazil nut, celery, mustard and sesame to provide our customers with the information they require to confidently label their products.
