Mycotoxins are a group of naturally occurring toxins produced as secondary metabolites by certain moulds. They can occur in a variety of different crops and are estimated to be responsible for losses of 5-10% of crop production globally.
Myco 6 allows the user to simultaneously detect 6 of the world’s most prevalent Mycotoxins from a single sample of feed. Using the Biochip format, the Randox Food Diagnostics R&D team have combined 6 Mycotoxins onto a single assay. With a straightforward extraction and a 50µl sample of feed, the user will obtain concentrations for all 6 Mycotoxins.
This intuitive consolidation of testing, coupled with the globally trusted quality associated with Randox biochip ranges, makes this array outstanding in its field. Myco 6 reduces analytical waiting time by 40% in comparison to the current Biochip mycotoxin arrays. Validated for new matrices such as oil seeds which include rapeseed, sunflower and cotton seed.
