The CDIATM Pentachlorophenol Colloidal Gold Test Cassette (Aquatic Products) is a lateral flow immunoassay for the detection of Pentachlorophenol in aquatic products.
Pentachlorophenol antigen is coated on the test region of the nitrocellulose membrane of the strips, and pentachlorophenol antibody is labeled with colloid gold. During a test, the colloid gold labeled antibody coated in the strip move forward along the membrane, and a red line will show up when the antibody gathers with the antigen in the test line; if pentachlorophenol in the sample is over the detection limit, line T is blank; on the other wise, if pentachlorophenol in the sample is less than the detection limit, line T is red.
Pentachlorophenol (PCP) is an organochlorine compound used as a pesticide and a disinfectant. As one of the persistent toxic substances, PCP is carcinogenic and toxic to plants, animals, and humans even at low concentrations. Long-term exposure to PCP can result in endocrine disruption, hemolymph neoplasms, digestive-system neoplasms, and an increased risk of other cancers.
