Not all cow’s milk is created equal. The difference lies in a small but significant variation in a milk protein called β-casein. Most milk contains either the A1 or A2 variant of this protein, each processed differently in the human body.
A1 β-casein has been associated with the production of beta-casomorphin-7 (BCM-7) during digestion, a bioactive peptide that may impact gastrointestinal health.
A2 milk, on the other hand, contains only A2 β-casein, which lacks this component due to its genetic structure.
To support researchers and food producers in distinguishing between these variants, Anatolia introduces Bosphore A1-A2 Genotyping Kit v1.
- Detects A1 and A2 β-casein alleles using Real-Time PCR
- High specificity and sensitivity, even in processed dairy products
- The LOD (limit of detection) is as low as 0.1% for raw and 1% for 10 ng/μL for processed dairy DNA
- This kit offers a fast, reliable, and highly specific method to differentiate between A1 and A2 milk, essential for product labeling, food research, and nutritional studies.
- Includes internal and positive controls for data reliability
