Mycotoxin test kits Microbiological Test.
Mycotoxin is a toxin produced by an organism of the fungus kingdom, which includes mushrooms, molds and yeasts. It is a secondary fungal metabolite that induce a variety of toxic and carcinogenic effects when food contaminated with the toxin is ingested. There are two major kinds of fungi producing mycotoxins. One is Fusarium species, which generate mycotoxins directly on agricultural crops, such as DON, Zearalenone, T-2 Toxin and Fumonisin, predominantly reach the food chain through cereals and cereal products. The other important group of fungi (e.g. Aspergillus- and Penicillium species) is occurring during inadequate storage areas. The corresponding mycotoxins, such as Aflatoxins and Ochratoxin A, are found in not correctly stored crop products or in food products directly. USFDA and EU have set up a range of mycotoxins permitted in food and animal feed.
Mycotoxin-residues can be determined by either HPLC, LC-MS or GC-MS. Alternatively, enzyme immunoassays (ELISA) show considerable advantages over conventional methods.
The MaxSignal™ Mycotoxin ELISA Test Kits provide a simple, rapid, sensitive and cost-effective enzyme immunoassay (ELISA) screening method, which enables government agencies, food processors, as well as quality assurance organizations, to detect mycotoxin in food matrices.
