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 3 allows the user to simultaneously detect 3 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 3 Mycotoxins onto a single assay. With a straightforward extraction and a 50µl sample of feed, the user will obtain concentrations for 3 Mycotoxins.
This intuitive consolidation of testing, coupled with the globally trusted quality associated with Randox biochip ranges, makes this array outstanding in its field. Validated for new matrices such as oil seeds which include rapeseed, sunflower and cotton seed.
