Sesame belongs to the family of Pedaliaceae. With about 16-32% the fraction of proteins in sesame seed is very high. Some of these proteins, like the albumins Ses i 1 and Ses i 2 or the globulin Ses i 3 are known for being allergenic. Because of its wide- spread application possibilities, sesame is used in many food preparations. For sesame-allergic persons hidden sesame allergens in food are a critical problem. Already very low amounts of sesame can cause allergic reactions, which may lead to anaphylactic shock in severe cases. Because of this, sesame-allergic persons must strictly avoid the consumption of sesame containing food. Cross-contamination, most-ly in consequence of the production pro-cess, is often noticed. This explains why in many cases the existence of sesame residues in food cannot be excluded. For this reason sensitive detection systems for sesame residues in food-stuffs are required. ARG80812 Sesame ELISA Kit represents a highly sensitive detection system for sesame and is particularly capable of the quantification of residues in bakery products, soups, sausage, sauces and ice cream.
