Smartphone App for Food Allergen Testing

By Staff
June 23, 2014

RomerLabs (Tulln, Austria) has launched its new AgraApp for Apple iOS7 to assist in testing for food allergens via lateral flow devices – namely the AgraStrip® line. The AgraApp — which is free of charge and can be downloaded easily from the Apple App Store — enables customers to analyze and document food allergen results obtained with AgraStrip brazil nut, almond, cashew, hazelnut, macadamia nut, peanut, pistachio and walnut varieties.

The procedure is simple: With a smartphone, the user takes a picture of the test strip result region and AgraApp matches the color of the test line to a given color palette in the app, allowing the output of a semi-quantitative result. The picture and the result will be stored on the smartphone and can be forwarded instantly to a computer via email. The AgraApp also contains detailed test kit instructions, FAQs, a stopwatch, re-order forms, and technical support information.
