Rapid and reliable real-time PCR detection of Aspergillus species in food products to ensure safety and compliance with mycotoxin risk management protocols.
Avam® FoodTrace™ Aspergillus Detection Kit
Product Description
The Avam® FoodTrace™ Aspergillus Detection Kit is a highly sensitive molecular assay designed for the rapid and accurate detection of Aspergillus species in food products. Aspergillus contamination is a critical concern in the food industry due to its ability to produce harmful mycotoxins, such as aflatoxins and ochratoxins, which can compromise food safety and regulatory compliance.
This real-time PCR assay enables the detection of multiple Aspergillus species with high specificity and sensitivity. Using pre-optimized reagents and streamlined workflows, the kit reduces processing time and increases accuracy in food safety testing. Compatible with Avam® PCR systems, it provides rapid and reliable results, allowing food producers and safety laboratories to act quickly in response to contamination risks. The assay includes internal controls to ensure result validation and minimize false negatives.
Applications
● Detection of Aspergillus species in grains, nuts, dried fruits, dairy, and processed food.
● Screening of food ingredients and final products for fungal contamination. ● Mycotoxin risk assessment in food production and storage facilities.
● Compliance with food safety and regulatory guidelines.
