Introducing the first 4-in-1
multi-residue Mycotoxin
analysis kit You’ll save time and money by screening for Deoxnivalenol, Aflatoxins, Ochratoxin A, Zearalenone and Fumonisin in one HPLC and post-column derivatization run. Advantage of Multi-Residue Screen
Mycotoxin screening has recently become a top priority for many labs. Two types of Mycotoxins are of interest here: Aspergillus (Aflatoxins & Ochratoxin A) which are generally associated with peanuts, and Fusarium (Deoxynivalenol & Zearalenone ) with wheat. These fungi and those that produce other toxins are not host selective and so can cross plant species. Complication the situation is that the microscopic mold may not be visible to the naked eye. Also, when infected grains are processed, any visible mold is lost but the toxic metabolites carry over into the finished products. Therefore, multi-residue analytical screens for toxins in grain and finished goods are a wiser choice than single-family protocols. |
Sample Preparation summary
Sample preparation by AOAC Method 991.31 utilizes an a affinity SPE column and specified Aflatoxin procedure. A reverse phase column is used for analysis and post-column derivatization using Iodine and fluorescence detection. Two Screens
The Pickering Laboratories PCX 5200 post-column system and the specified LC and post-column conditions allows for two screens: Method One test for Deoxynivalenol, Alfatoxins, Ochratoxin A and Zearalone. Method Two tests for Deoxynivalenol, Aflatoxins and Fumonisins. The Pickering Laboratories’ multi-residue Mycotoxin analysis kit and our “Guaranteed Chemistry” let you clock faster tests. And with the promise you’ll get the chromatogram right, the first time, or you money back. For more information about our multi-residue Mycotoxin test, see this abstract. |
