I tested with a threshold of 5 ppm. The limit of detection depends on the number of drops taken from the extraction solution, please find some more information here.

Test result: A clearly visible red line appears on the right of the test stick ( T ) which indicates the presence of gluten equal to or above 5 ppm (most likely above because of the past results). The red line is not bright but clearly visible. Even though this test is positive please note it is not a medical advice – see my facts page.
