Abstract
A sensitive qualitative detection method for wheat in foods using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was developed. Trace amounts of wheat in commercial food products could be qualitatively detected by this method. The sensitivity of the proposed PCR method appears to be similar to that of ELISA. The present method should be very useful for detecting wheat residues in processed foods.Entities:
