Aflatoxin M1 Qualitative Rapid Test Kit is a lateral flow assay that determines a qualitative level for the presence of aflatoxin M1 in raw cow’s milk. This test is designed for rapid field use or daily control in laboratories.
Aflatoxin M1 Quantitative Rapid Test Kit
Aflatoxin M1 is a chemical compound of the aflatoxin class, a group of mycotoxins produced by three species of Aspergillus - Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus parasiticus, and the rare Aspergillus nomius - which contaminate plant and plant products.
Aspergillus flavus produces only B-type aflatoxins. Aflatoxin M1 is the hydroxylated metabolite of aflatoxin B1 and can be found in milk or milk products obtained from livestock that have ingested contaminated feed. The detection of mycotoxin residues such as Aflatoxin M1 in raw milk is of great concern for the dairy industry because of the potential interfering and adverse effects of mycotoxin residues frequently found in raw milk.
Experimental Preparation:
Restore the sample and kit to room temperature.
Operation steps:
1. Open the reagent barrel and take out the required number of micropores. Put the rest back into the reagent barrel and cover it well to avoid the reagent in the reagent barrel getting damp.
2. Mix the sample evenly and suck 200 μ L in micropores, blow and mix evenly for 5 ~ 10 times, and incubate at 40 ℃ for 3min.
3. Take out the required number of test strips, cover the reagent barrel cover, and then mark one end of the absorbent paper of the test strip.
4. Insert one end of the sample pad of the test strip into the micropore, react at 40 ℃ for 5min, interpret the results according to the schematic diagram, and the interpretation at other times is invalid.
Precautions:
1. Do not mix different batches of test strips and micropores.
2. It is recommended to wear clean disposable gloves for operation.
3. Retest the positive test results.
4. The reagent barrel shall be used up within 1 week after opening, and the unused reagent shall be stored at 2 ~ 8 ℃.
5. This product is only used for preliminary screening.
