Method Description
Crustacean allergens from shellfish like shrimp, crab, and lobster can cause severe allergic reactions, including life-threatening anaphylaxis. Testing is essential for detecting cross-contamination in shared processing facilities and verifying "shellfish-free" claims on products intended for allergic consumers. The ELISA method detects crustacean proteins at trace levels that could trigger reactions in highly sensitive individuals.
