PRODUCT DETAILS
Reveal® 2.0 for PSP (paralytic shellfish poisoning) is a 5 minute lateral flow assay that detects saxitoxin equivalents. Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning causing toxins can be produced by dinoflagellates of different genera including Alexandrium and Gymnodinium. Once the toxin is present in the shellfish tissue it cannot be destroyed by heat during cooking. Reveal 2.0 for PSP is intended for the qualitative screening of shellfish PST’s, which produce a positive result with samples containing approximately 800 ppb STX equivalents or greater.

Reveal 2.0 for PSP is a single-step lateral flow device based on a competitive immunoassay format. Shellfish extract is wicked through a reagent zone containing antibodies specific for PSTs that have been conjugated to colored particles. If PSTs are present in the sample, the toxin will be captured by the particle-antibody complex. The complex then is wicked onto a membrane, which contains a stationary capture zone of a toxin-protein conjugate. This zone captures any uncomplexed PST particle-antibody. Therefore, as the concentration of PSTs in the sample increases, the test line intensity decreases. The membrane also contains a stationary control zone which will always form regardless of the level of PSTs.
