AuthentiX LFD Diesel Test Kit

Patented, antibody-based test kit.

Developed to recognize illicit mixing

of Diesel with Illuminating Paraffin.

Scientists at AuthentiX developed a simple but highly effective solution for Diesel traders and consumers; to significantly reduce their risks of unknowingly accepting or trading with Diesel that has been mixed/adulterated with Illuminating Paraffin.

 

A Lateral Flow Device ‘LFD’ (Diesel Testing Kit) test can now proactively  protect your Diesel consuming equipment, transport fleet, and/or trading enterprise from damage and / or costly litigation.

LFD Testing will ensure that you are in full compliance with Section 37(A) of the Customs & Excise Act 91 of 1964.

 

When Paraffin is used to mix into Diesel the presence of the Authentix A1 multi-layered marker enables the consumer to detect, quantify and confirm such illicit activity, in order to report the illegal blending of Illuminated Paraffin with Diesel to the relevant authority (SARS Fuel Compliance Officers).

 

It also empowers Diesel Consumers to avoid suppliers who sell Diesel illegally blended with Illuminated Paraffin.

 

Results show within approximately 10min from commencement of the first step.
