Biomedal Diagnostics: Food Safety products Gluten. Tox products offer practical tools to detect the most immunogenic fraction of gluten from wheat, rye, barley and some varieties of oat. Oleotest is a rapid test to report the quality of used frying oil by estimation of the polar compound concentration. Rapid kits for food proteins residues detection on foodstuff and surfaces. Easily detects residues from: milk (casein and Blactoglobulin), egg, crustacean, fish, soy, peanut, hazelnut and almond.
