MDS Analytical Technologies Announces Validation of Two More Kits for High-Throughput Detection of Melamine in Food
Date:2/19/2009 

    Protocols developed for assay kits from Beacon Analytical Systems and
    Romer Labs for use on SpectraMax(R) microplate readers with SoftMax(R)
    Pro analytical software

SUNNYVALE, CA, Feb. 19 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - MDS Analytical Technologies, a leader in innovative solutions for drug discovery and life sciences research, today announced that two new assay kits - the Melamine Plate Kit from Beacon Analytical Systems, which focuses on the development and manufacture of immunodiagnostic kits for environmental and food/feed testing markets, and the AgraQuant Melamine ELISA Test Kits from Romer Labs, a leader in diagnostic solutions for mycotoxins and genetically modified organisms - have been validated for use on MDS Analytical Technologies' SpectraMax(R) absorbance microplate readers with SoftMax(R) Pro 5 GxP analytical software, an industry-standard analysis software for FDA 21 CFR Part 11 compliance.

This high-throughput solution from MDS Analytical Technologies offers a cost-effective method for the detection of melamine, an organic industrial polymer that has recently been found in various foods and may cause serious illness or death. These enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) solutions offer food-safety technicians more options in their continued effort to detect the presence of melamine.

"Melamine contamination continues to be a major concern and emphasis on finding effective detection methods is growing," said Andy Boorn, President of MDS Analytical Technologies. "In the past three months, MDS Analytical Technologies has now validated three such detection kits to run on our hardware and software. We're very pleased to be the emerging leader in high-throughput, cost-effective melamine detection solutions."

Mass-spectrometry systems made by MDS Analytical Technologies are also used throughout the world to scan, identify and measure food contaminants, such as melamine. Mass-spectrometry syste
