Quantum Total Green

Quantum Total Green is an innovative Lateral Flow test, for the quantitative determination of Aflatoxin B1, B2, G1 and G2 in grains, nuts and cereals. Due to its QUANTUM scan technology, samples free of Aflatoxins can be detected in 2 minutes. The total time of reaction takes 4 minutes to complete.

GENERAL INFORMATION:Aflatoxins are toxic metabolites of major concern to the food industry, generally produced by Aspergillus flavus, A. parasiticus and A. nomius. They can have immunosuppressive, mutagenic, teratogenic and carcinogenic effects. Aflatoxins can be present in grains, spices, cereals and other commodities associated with human food or animal feed. Crops may be contaminated with aflatoxins. AFB1 is the most toxic and frequently detected form. The other types (B2, G1 and G2) present a significant danger if the concentration is at a high level. Animals are exposed to aflatoxins by consumption of feed that have fungal strains producing aflatoxins during growth, harvest or storage. Symptoms of toxicity in animals range from death to chronic diseases, reproductive interference, immune suppression, decreased milk and egg production. Most controlling government agencies worldwide have regulations regarding the amount of aflatoxins allowable in human and animal foodstuffs. Accurate and rapid determination of aflatoxin presence in commodities is of paramount importance.
