Deoxynivalenol (DON) Column Kit Mycotoxin ELISA Kit For Food and Feed Analysis

Deoxynivalenol (DON) Column Kit

Product Description

REAGEN™ Deoxynivalenol (DON) Column Kit contains immunoaffinity columns for the convenient purification and enrichment of Deoxynivalenol (also known as Vomitoxin or DON) from a variety of food and feed samples for downstream HPLC and ELISA analysis. DON is a naturally-occurring fungal toxin that can be present in many different types of food. Contamination of food with DON can cause a variety of serious illnesses. The columns contain immobilized antibodies which bind DON. When food sample extracts are passed through the columns, DON will specifically bind to the column while the other substances pass through. The analyte is then eluted from the column using methanol.

Procedure Overview

REAGEN™ immunoaffinity columns use a simple procedure to enrich DON from food samples. A liquid extract prepared from the sample is passed through the column to bind the DON. After washing the column with a wash solution, the DON is eluted using methanol.The enriched samples are suitable for subsequent analysis by HPLC or ELISA methods. Each column is disposable and should only be used once.
