Mycotoxines are metabolic products of different fungi and are produced while they grow on vegetable food or feeding stuff. Except through spoilage of food, contaminations can appear through processing with contaminated food or even through feeding contaminated products. Food such as cereals, nuts, spices, coffee, wine and fruit juices are the most affected. Furthermore potentially affected foods are legumes, oil seeds and milk products.

Since Mycotoxines are partly carcinogenic, there are very low threshold values for these substances, especially for food for infants and toddlers.

That is why the testing of these limits need very specific and sensible analysis, which we offer for years, especially for the babyfood industry.

The following Mycotoxines can be detected in food of all kind:

Mycotoxines

• Aflatoxine B1,B2, G1 und G2
• Aflatoxin M1
• Ochratoxin
• Zearalenon
• Deoxynivalenol
• Patulin
