Test Description

Fusarium toxins are produced by Fusarium. These are toxic and of considerable concern to livestock and poultry producers. Hence the requirement for effective testing measures to ensure only high quality, safe maize flour offered to livestock producers.

Fusarium also may cause adverse effects when consumed in significant levels by humans. So it is vital to ensure your testing practises are effective and are critiqued through effective quality control activities.

Maize Flour is used within a large amount of foodstuffs across the globe. As such effective testing measures should be undertaken to highlight any poor storage practises and as such high levels of mycotoxins. Many maize flours make use of the whole maize grain, as such it is important to ensure effective Fusarium identification.

Reference materials offer key advantages for laboratories, over and above that of quality control materials. With an improved degree of characterisation compared to proficiency tests or quality control materials, reference materials have a plethora of uses, including method calibration.

They also have a defined chain of traceability, so you know exactly what is in your reference materials. This is further supported through our reference materials associated data sheet which covers its reference values and expanded uncertainty. This data sheet is invaluable for method validation or verification as well as an effective tool for staff training, to standardise your testing processes.
