Do you test for Mycotoxins?

We supply a range of test kits to detect levels in mycotoxins including Aflatoxins, Deoxynivalenol, Ochratoxin A, Fumonisins, Zearalenone, Patulin and T-2 Toxin.

According to the Food & Agriculture Organisation (FAO), more than 25 % of the world's agricultural production is contaminated with mycotoxins. This equates to economic losses estimated at $923 million annually in the US grain industry alone. Most countries have adopted regulations to limit exposure to mycotoxins, having strong impact on food and animal crop trade. The presence of mycotoxins is unavoidable and therefore testing of raw materials and products is required to keep our food and feed safe.
