Deoxynivalenol  Testing Solutions

Deoxynivalenol, also known as vomitoxin, is a potent fungal toxin that affects crops grown in cool and moist conditions. It is produced by the Fusarium species and mainly affects corn, wheat, oats, and barley. These species are also known to co-produce other toxins, particularly zearalenone. Deoxynivalenol is a known immunosuppressant that can cause kidney problems. Consuming grain contaminated with DON can induce vomiting in both humans and animals. To protect consumers from the harmful effects of deoxynivalenol, most countries have established regulations. The European Union has established maximum levels for food and recommendations for feed, while the US FDA has established advisory levels. Romer Labs is a leader in the field, with over 40 years of experience, offering an extensive portfolio of comprehensive deoxynivalenol testing solutions.
