Industrial Dust Collector

The Gold Series X-Flo (GSX) industrial dust collection system collects airborne dust particles to provide a clean work environment and prevent cross-contamination of food products. The system is ideal for dry food ingredients such as coarse grains, fine spices, and additives, as well as sticky dusts such as sugar and whey. It can collect toxic, nuisance, and combustible food dusts including fine, fibrous, and heavy dust loads. It can capture food dust at its source using stainless steel pickup hoods at each production station or by directly hooking to batch mixers or high-velocity slot hoods behind weigh stations. Capturing dusts at their source prevents worker exposure to airborne contaminants and keeps dust from travelling throughout the facility.The GSX system also helps food processing and manufacturing facilities exceed OSHA indoor air quality standards. The system offers the highest combustible dust explosion protection in accordance with NFPA and ATEX standards. Camfil Air Pollution Control, camfil.com.

ELISA Rapid Gluten Test

The GlutenTox ELISA Rapid G12, an improved test for the most immunotoxic peptide in gluten, provides results in less time than either previous versions or competitors’ ELISA tests for gluten. The test uses the G12 antibody to identify in food samples the 33-mer (part) peptide segment of the gliadin protein, which is part of the gluten protein complex. This “33-mer” peptide is the most immunotoxic part of the gluten protein and induces celiac disease in susceptible people. The 33-mer peptide also shows high resistance to complete digestion by human digestive enzymes. Focusing on this peptide fragment provides more objective information to help people with celiac disease and gluten intolerance to avoid foods that contain gluten. The test provides measurement of gluten down to 0.6 ppm (0.3 ppm of gliadin). Hygenia, hygiena.com.
