Detection of Mollusc Allergen ?
Hello,
We use AllerSnap by Hygiena and AccuClean from Neogen. However, I have not been able to find a product that has validation to be able to detect molluscs.
Can someone suggest or comment on what they use for detecting molluscs protein residue?
Thanks
Vanessa
I don't know much about molluscs, but wouldn't a general protein swab not do it? I use Hygenia protein swabs that detect any and all proteins, and they work great.

Because Molluscan Fish aren't considered allergens in the USA, it doesn't surprise me. Like MDaleDDF said - a general protein swab, like you already use, would be your best bet.
