A new lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) method for sensitive gluten detection in complex food substrates was developed using novel gliadin monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) and a visual gold reporter. The study also introduced a novel plug-and-play test strip platform with integrated test components for single-use format.
The gluten protein found in a variety of cereal grains is a food allergen that can elicit a spectrum of immunoinflammatory responses in people. Consumer awareness has prompted changes in food labeling requirements, expanded gluten-free food product availability and increased demand for effective gluten testing methodologies. To meet the challenges associated with gluten testing from diverse and complex foods we developed a lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) using a pair of novel gliadin monoclonal antibodies (MAbs). Using a visual gold reporter, we show sensitive gluten detection (150 ng/mL) from complex food substrates using a fast (<5 min) and easy testing methodology. In this report we characterize the binding properties of a cohort of newly generated gliadin monoclonal antibodies suitable for gluten detection using multiple assay formats and introduce a novel plug-n-play test strip platform with integrated test components in a single-use format.
