Announcing: A Change in the name of our Plant Derived Alternative Drink Detection Kits
The increasing demand for soy-based and nut-based alternatives to dairy products has raised widespread international concern regarding appropriate labelling for plant derived foods. There is a growing consensus that application of dairy-associated terms such as “milk” to plant-based substitutes may result in confusion among consumers, particularly in regard to nutritional content. In some jurisdictions, this has led to regulations specifying that the term ‘milk’ cannot be used to designate a purely plant-based product, unless specifically exempted.
The range of ELISA Systems Assay Kits designed for the detection of soy and nut “milks” are now re-labelled to reflect the current international environment regarding labelling of such plant derived foods. Consequently, the term “milk” is now to be replaced with the term “drink” for the following ELISA Systems kits:
