AFLATOXIN, VOMITOXIN AND FUMONISIN TEST KITS

Seedburo offers Agri-Screen ® , Reveal ® and Veratox ® mycotoxin testing kits from Neogen ® . The Agri-Screen and Veratox tests are competitive direct enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (CD-ELISA) that allow the user to either qualitatively (pass/fail) or quantitatively (ppb or ppm reading) test a sample of grain. Neogen’s new Reveal mycotoxin tests are extremely simple striptests in a format similar to a stick home pregnancy test.

With the Agri-Screen and Veratox tests, and extraction is taken from the grain sample and mixed with a simple series of reagents in disposable microwells. If the sample in a microwell results in less blue color, it contains more toxin than the control. The user has the flexibility to test at various concentrations and the test takes less than 5 minutes to perform. The color of the sample is either visually compared to the color of the control for pass/fail results, or used with the Awareness Microwell Reader (NEO9302) for an exact ppm or ppb result. With the Reveal test, all a tester has to do is dip a strip into an extracted sample. Results are available in as little as two minutes. Neogen’s new AccuScan™ Reader *NEO9590), the only lateral flow test reader on the market, provides an easy method to objectively read, store, and analyze results from Neogen’s Reveal line of test strips. (Aflatoxin and Fumonisin tests require a 70% dilution of methanol, No. NEO8055.)

AFLATOXIN TEST KITS: Aflatoxin is a naturally occurring carcinogen and is a by-product of mold growth in a wide range of commodities. It can be produced pre-harvest in the field and post-harvest in storage. The maximum allowable limit set buy the USDA is 20 ppb, which is about 20 bad corn kernels in 11,650 bushels or four loaded hopper cars. In high heat and drought conditions, it is essential that grain handlers know what levels of aflatoxin might be present in the grain they are receiving.

DON (vomitoxin) TEST KITS: Chemically know as deoxynivalenol, DON is produced most commonly by the pink mould fusarium graminearum. It can cause gastrointestinal illness in humans. In animals, it can cause vomiting, feed refusal,immune suppression, and weight loss, especially in swine. Agri-Screen ® for DON is a qualitative test and users visually compare their results against a known control sample, whereas the Veratox ® kit provides and exact concentration result from 0.5-6 ppm and requires a NEO9023 Awareness reader.

FUMONISIN TEST KITS: Fumonisin (B1, B2, and B3) is a by-product of molds that commonlyinfect corn. As with the other Neogen test kits, the fumonisin tests are available in the Agri-Screen® simple pass/fail qualitative kit or the Veratox ® quantitative kit if you need an exact parts per million result.
