T-2test LC Immunoaffinity Column

Using monoclonal antibody-based affinity chromatography, T-2test LC is a HPLC-only test for the detection of T-2 mycotoxin for customers in the food processing industry. An ideal cleanup step for any HPLC, T-2test LC is simple, reliable and provides precise numerical results in parts per million levels—the preferred test of laboratories around the world for speed, quantification, and specificity.

Benefits
• Exclusive – Specifically for HPLC use
• Convenient – Uses same methods as other VICAM tests
• Durable — Long shelf life; requires no refrigeration
• Versatile — Can be used with a variety of samples
• Ideal Volume - Column size of 1 mL
• Wide Range — Detects levels as low as 5 ppb and as high as 1500 ppb
• Safe — Requires less toxic materials than other methods

Background

T-2 and HT-2 mycotoxins are produced by Fusarium and other mold species that can commonly attack grains and can grow at temperatures from slightly above freezing to about 86°F (30°C). All domestic animals are susceptible to injury by dietary intake of T-2 in the range of a few ppm. In poultry, feed contaminated with 1.0 to 3.5 ppm of T- 2 has produced lesions at the edges of the beaks, abnormal feathering in chicks, a drastic and sudden drop in egg production, eggs with thin shells, reduced weight gains, and mortality.
