What is the sibutramine colloidal gold rapid detection card?

Sibutramine is a drug that has been used for weight loss, but it has been banned from production, sales and use in our country due to serious cardiovascular risks. However, there are still some illegal merchants who add it illegally, posing a threat to consumer health. Therefore, it is essential to quickly and accurately detect sibutramine residues in food, and the sibutramine colloidal gold rapid detection card is an important tool to meet this demand.

So, what exactly is the sibutramine colloidal gold rapid detection card? Simply put, it is a rapid detection product based on colloidal gold immunochromatography technology, which is mainly used for qualitative screening of sibutramine in foods (such as weight loss foods, health products, plant-based Chinese herbal medicines, etc.). The core principle is to use colloidal gold particles as markers. When sibutramine in the test sample binds to the colloidal gold-labeled antibody, it will have an immune reaction with the detection line and the quality control line during the chromatography process, and the results will be judged by observing the color rendering of the lines.

This detection card has outstanding characteristics. The first is "fast". The whole detection process usually only takes 10-15 minutes, without complicated equipment and professional operation, and can be completed by ordinary personnel after simple training. Secondly, it is "simple". The sample pre-processing is simple (in most cases, only extraction and dilution are required). The detection card can be directly immersed in the sample or added dropwise to the sample to observe the results without cumbersome instrument operations. Furthermore, it is "sensitive". The detection limit can reach the national standard limit, which can effectively identify trace residues. In addition, it also has the advantage of "low cost". Compared with large-scale instrument detection (such as high-performance liquid chromatography), the detection card has a lower single cost and is suitable for large-scale screening.

In terms of application scenarios, sibutramine colloidal gold rapid detection card is widely used in food production enterprises for self-inspection of raw materials and finished products, rapid screening by market supervision departments, daily safety monitoring of catering units, and preliminary investigation of sibutramine residues in food by scientific research institutions. It can help relevant parties to quickly identify latent risks and take timely measures to ensure food safety from the source and protect public health.

In short, sibutramine colloidal gold rapid detection card with its fast, simple, sensitive and low cost characteristics, has become the right-hand assistant of sibutramine residue detection in the food field, and plays an important role in the front of food safety protection.
