QUICK LINKS
Aflatoxin Antibody (AFC-13) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 antibody that detects Aflatoxin by western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Aflatoxin is a naturally occurring mycotoxin produced primarily by the molds Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus, which thrive in environments with high moisture and temperature, often affecting grains during stressful growth conditions. The significance of Aflatoxin lies in its potent toxicity, particularly Aflatoxin B1, which is recognized as one of the most harmful mycotoxins known. Understanding the structure of Aflatoxin is crucial, as Aflatoxin consists of a fused bicyclic structure that contributes to Aflatoxin′s ability to intercalate with DNA, leading to mutagenic effects and potential carcinogenicity. This structural characteristic not only underscores the importance of monitoring Aflatoxin levels in food and feed products but also highlights the necessity for effective detection methods, such as those provided by anti-Aflatoxin antibody (AFC-13). The presence of Aspergillus flavus in agricultural settings serves as a critical indicator for potential Aflatoxin contamination, making Aflatoxin (AFC-13) antibody essential for ensuring food safety and public health.
