Multitoxins Testing
Different mycotoxins can occur simultaneously in food products and pose serious threats to both human and animal health. The principal toxins among these include common toxic components such as Aflatoxins, Ochratoxin A, Deoxynivalenol (DON), Patulin, Zearalenone (ZEA), HT-2, T-2, and Citrinin.
The presence of multitoxins consists of toxic metabolites that contaminate food products at different levels of the food chain, usually depending on fungal growth. Molds can multiply rapidly depending on humidity, temperature, and storage conditions, causing severe health risks in food products. To obtain accurate results in testing, sampling procedures must ensure that the sample fully represents the entire batch.
