Cow milk in sheep milk (CIS)

Sheep's and goat's milk are much more expensive than cow's milk, which is often used to extend sheep's and goat's milk. Falsification of milk is important to be detected regarding the product declaration and the protection of the consumers.

Using the RIDASCREEN® CIS assay, admixtures of cow's milk can be detected with a detection limit of 0.1 % in sheep's and goat's milk, and cheese.

Remark:
The RIDASCREEN® CIS assay detects natural components (antibodies) of cow's milk. Therefore, the test will remain negative, if ultra heated cow's milk is tested.
