Imutest Gluten-in-Food – test for gluten content in foods
When the test is useful
Coeliac disease is a lifelong condition caused by gluten intolerance. In sensitive individuals, even a small amount of gluten may trigger health problems, so it is important to be certain about the composition of foods.
The Imutest Gluten-in-Food kit is intended for qualitative home detection of gluten in raw materials, semi-finished products, and finished foods. It helps verify low gluten levels and indicatively assess whether a product meets gluten-free food requirements.
According to the product materials, the test is designed to confirm compliance with a gluten content limit of less than 20 mg/kg, which corresponds to the Codex international standard and European rules for the “gluten-free” claim.
The test is suitable when there are doubts about food composition, for checking raw materials and finished products, and for people who need to verify food safety during a gluten-free diet.
What the test is for
  • Checking for the presence of gluten in raw materials before use in meal preparation.
  • Verification of the gluten-free status of partially processed or finished products.
  • Quick home screening when gluten contamination is suspected.
Key benefits
  • Relatively fast, simple, and very accurate home detection of gluten content in foods.
  • Detection level up to 20 mg/kg corresponding to the limit for the “gluten-free” claim.
  • Suitable for testing outside a laboratory with minimal equipment.
  • The package contains material for 5 tests.
Easy to use
The test is performed in 5 steps. The evaluation itself usually takes about 10 minutes, and additional time for sample preparation and extraction may take up to 40 minutes.
  • The sample is extracted in the yellow extraction solution.
  • Part of the sample is diluted and applied into the test cassette.
  • The presence of gluten is indicated by the formation of a pink test spot in the T field.
  • Correct test performance is confirmed by a pink control spot in the C field.
Kit contents
The package contains everything needed for 5 tests:
  • a plastic sample scoop,
  • a bottle with yellow extraction solution,
  • a self-measuring pipette,
  • a bottle with colourless diluent solution,
  • a test cassette in foil with desiccant,
  • pink colour reagent in a blue bottle,
  • instructions for use in English.
Important: Use the test cassette only if it is not damaged and the desiccant is yellow or pale green. After opening the plastic pouch, the test unit should be used as soon as possible, no later than within 8 hours.
Clinical and detection performance
The test is sufficiently sensitive to confirm a gluten level below 20 mg/kg across a wide range of food commodities and products.
