Description
The Biorex Fipronil ELISA Kit from Biorex Food Diagnostics is a high-sensitivity, ready-to-use immunoassay designed for the detection of fipronil residues and its metabolites, including fipronil-sulfone and fipronil-desulfinyl, in food matrices such as eggs, milk, and other animal-derived products.
Fipronil is a broad-spectrum phenylpyrazole insecticide widely used in agriculture and veterinary applications. In particular, it helps control pests such as ants, beetles, cockroaches, fleas, ticks, termites, mole crickets, thrips, rootworms, and weevils. However, despite its effectiveness in pest management, regulatory authorities strictly prohibit its use in food-producing animals due to concerns over residue exposure in the food chain.
As a result, monitoring for fipronil residues is essential to ensure food safety and regulatory compliance. Even at trace levels, contamination in animal-derived products can trigger serious public health concerns and lead to regulatory breaches. Therefore, international food safety standards tightly control the presence of fipronil and its metabolites in food.
To support this need, the Biorex Fipronil ELISA Kit enables rapid, accurate, and highly sensitive detection of both the parent compound and key metabolites. In addition, its immunoassay format allows efficient screening of large sample volumes. Consequently, it is well suited for routine monitoring in food testing laboratories, production facilities, and quality assurance programmes.
Overall, the kit provides reliable and reproducible results that help laboratories and producers verify compliance with regulatory limits. Furthermore, it supports consumer protection by preventing contaminated products from entering the food supply chain. In this way, it strengthens traceability, maintains food integrity, and supports global food safety standards for pesticide residue monitoring in animal-derived foods.
