MJPK Test Kit Screen Pesticide Residues
in Vegetable and Friuts
Principle
The MJPK Test Kit is a qualitative screen, colourimetric assay for the detection of organophosphate and carbamate pesticide resiudes in vegetable and fruits based on their inhibition of the enzyme cholinesterase (ChE). If pesticides from the organophosphate and carbamate groups are present, colour formation will be reduced. Detection limit for ability to inhibit the enzyme is 15% which means that slight poisoning indicates unsafe. Accuracy and specificity of procedure are 85 and 81%, respectively (false positive is 15%, false negative is 0%).
