ENVIROLOGIX Inc. - Environmental & Food Monitoring Kits: Pesticides

TRIAZINES (ELISA Kit)

Intended Use

The EnviroLogix Triazine Plate Kit Is Designed For The Quantitative Laboratory Detection Of Triazine Pesticide Residues In Ground And Surface Water Samples, With An Assay Range From 0.04 To 4.0 Parts Per Billion (Ppb).

General

 

The EnviroLogix Triazine Plate Kit is a competitive Enzyme-Linked ImmunoSorbent Assay (ELISA).  In the test, Triazine pesticide residues in the sample compete with enzyme (horseradish peroxidase), labeled atrazine for a limited number of antibody binding sites on the inside surface of the test wells.  After a simple wash step, the outcome of the competition is visualized with a color development step.  As with all competitive immunoassays, sample concentration is inversely proportional to color development.

Darker color = Lower concentration

Lighter color = Higher concentration

The EnviroLogix Triazine Plate Kit can be used in the following applications:

  • Point Source Testing.
  • Drinking Water Monitoring.
  • Treated Effluent Monitoring.
  • Run-Off Assessment And Monitoring.
  • Source Water Protection.
