Ensure your products are free of natural toxins

Natural toxins are chemicals that are naturally produced by living organisms. Toxins are found in a staggering range of matrices, from grains, fruits, spices, meat, seafood, milk, and nuts to animal feed.  They are of major concern to the worldwide economy because of annual revenue lost due to contamination, the toxicity of the toxins to both animals and humans (many are known carcinogens), and because  they are persistent throughout multiple food processing steps.


Leveraging Complementary Selectivity to Solve Challenging Analytical Problems

The analysis of mycotoxins of food and feed is necessary and often required by legislation. In this application, mycotoxins are used as a model suite of aromatic compounds to demonstrate why and how orthogonal chemistries can help us determine the best column choice when running a sample in a complicated matrix.

Tackling Mycotoxins with the Orbitrap-based Mass Spectrometer

Dr. Jana Hajšlová of the Institute of Chemical Technology stays on the forefront of food safety by arming herself with advanced tools. Discover how Dr. Hajšlová was able to capitalize on the performance of Orbitrap-based mass spectrometry for the analysis of mycotoxins.

On-demand webinars for mycotoxin analysis

Mycotoxins are very stable compounds that cannot be readily destroyed by heating or food processing. Sensitive methods for mycotoxin analysis are needed to protect public health. Learn how Thermo Scientific solutions can help you monitor for mycotoxins in a variety of matrices.
