Mycotoxins are toxic waste products of microscopic (mold) fungi. More than 350 species of toxicogenic fungi are known to produce several hundred mycotoxins. Many of them have mutagenic (including carcinogenic) properties. Among the mycotoxins that pose a threat to human and animal health, the most common are aflatoxins(G2, G1, B2, and B1) , trichothecene mycotoxins, or trichothecenes, patulin, ochratoxins, zearalenone and zearalenol.
The average annual amount of mycotoxins in grain and feed that exceeds the regulatory limits is approaching 25%. Climate change is also exacerbating the uncertainty of mycotoxin growth. Testing and mitigation is more important than ever. Whether you need fast screening, high throughput, final verification and quantification, or any combination of these, Immunofarm has the right combination of methods and technologies to meet your needs. We can help all points along the grain chain to detect mycotoxins with the right technology for user capability, performance and accuracy.
Company Immunofarm offer a range of options for monitoring mycotoxin levels from simple, easy-to-use strip tests, immunoaffinity clean up with a fluorometric detection, to quantitative analysis using  LC-MS/MS.
