The corn often contaminated with aflatoxins, another mycotoxin that occurs in corn from time to time. If corn is fed with powder, it is better to use the feed pellet machine into 0.7-0.9mm particles. ...

The Afla-V® AQUA™ (aflatoxins), Fumo-V® AQUA™ (fumonisin) and DON-V® (vomitoxin) are also available. ...
The aim of the project is to identify and validate biological fungicides to control one or more of three major crop diseases of importance in Sub-Saharan Africa: sorghum anthracnose, black Sigatoka in banana, and aflatoxin contamination in maize. AgBiome’s proprietary Genesis discovery platform has already successfully identified multiple field-usable microbes that target ...
” Afla-V® AQUA™ and Fumo-V® AQUA™ are now both available worldwide. About Aflatoxins Aflatoxins are naturally occurring chemical byproducts of mold species, which are natural inhabitants of crop soils. Severe rain and drought can encourage aflatoxin production, and once released, aflatoxin and other ...
AgraStrip® WATEX test kits are now available for aflatoxins (B1, B2, G1, G2), deoxynivalenol, zerealenone and fumonisins (B1, B2, B3) and provide a fast, simple and eco-friendly solution for on-site mycotoxin testing. ...
Roughly five billion people in the developing world are likely to be exposed to aflatoxins, according to the Partnership for Aflatoxin Control in Africa. ...
During this study a proficiency test (PT) was performed for the simultaneous determination of 11 mycotoxins in corn using LC-MS/MS. Mycotoxins included aflatoxin B1, aflatoxin B2, aflatoxin G1, aflatoxin G2, ochratoxin A (OTA), deoxynivalenol (DON), T-2 toxin (T-2), HT-2 toxin (HT-2), zearalenone (ZEA), fumonisin B1, and ...
For example, it has been unable to establish the levels of aflatoxin — a carcinogenic mycotoxin produced by moulds — in coconut and coconut products to enable it to export larger amounts to Europe. Aflatoxins can contaminate a huge range of food items, from corn to cow's milk. While the Philippines feels the European Union's standards are ...
Specifically, corn and wheat industries in the Midwest, Southern, and Eastern regions of the country are experiencing aflatoxin and deoxynivalenol (DON) outbreaks. The drought has already prevented farmers from reaching their normal crop yields, and now the threat of aflatoxin and DON could hurt farmers even more. ...
Mycotoxins may be carcinogenic (e.g., aflatoxins B1, ochratoxin A, fumonisin B1), estrogenic (zearalenone and I and J zearalenols), nephrotoxic (ochratoxins, citrinin, oosporeine), dermonecrotic (trichothecenes), or immunosuppressive (aflatoxin B1, ochratoxin A, and T-2 ...
Earlier GPC-based methods have been based on commonly-used polystyrene polymer beads, which are suitable for zeralenone (ZEA), ochratoxin A (OTA), aflatoxins and trichothecenes. However, this material does not provide sufficient selectivity to separate fumonisins (FB1/FB2) from the oil fraction. ...
