The real-time PCR assay for the detection of potentially allergenic white mustard, developed by Magdalena Fuchs as part of her doctoral thesis in co-operation with Rupert Hochegger (Austrian Agency for Health and Food Safety (AGES), Institute for Food Safety, Department of Molecularbiology and Microbiology)), has recently been tested in a large ring trial. Subsequently, the real-time PCR assay has been included in the “Official Collection of Methods of Analysis” published by the “Federal Office of Consumer Protection and Food Safety“ in Germany.
