For all matrices being tested the gluten must be extracted from the samples for analysis, and is therefore one of the most critical points of the testing process. The GlutenTox Stick Plus kit includes the Universal Gluten Extraction Solution (UGES) which is suited to all types of food samples thanks to the combination of denaturing agents, reducing agents and solubilisers. For samples containing polyphenols, tannins or antioxidants a special additive must added to the extraction process. Foods rich in polyphenols or tannins include chocolate, tea, coffee, wine, purple corn and corn fibre, soy, berries. The most common antioxidant in cosmetic products are Vitamins A, C and E, carotenes, carotenoids etc. 

A visual result attained once the lateral flow device is placed into the extracted / diluted samples.
