Mycotoxins - Phytocontrol

Phytocontrol has developed the most innovative and effective methods for the determination of all mycotoxins of interest.

Phytocontrol thus guarantees you the best analytical synergy between quality, reactivity and price.

Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites with toxic action on humans and animals. They are synthesised by fungi of the mould type (Aspergillus sp., Fusarium sp...) in the fields or in the storage of foodstuffs.

Their analyses involve various complex extraction and detection protocols for which Phytocontrol has developed the most innovative and effective methods allowing the determination of all mycotoxins of interest via mono or multimycotoxin methods using the latest generation liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (UFLC/MS/MS).

Phytocontrol thus guarantees you the best analytical synergy between quality, reactivity and price while complying with all regulatory thresholds for all foodstuffs (baby food, milk and derived products, fresh fruit and derived products, dried fruit, nuts, dried vegetables, cereals and derived products, oilseeds, animal feed, coffee, cocoa, wines and alcoholic beverages).
Phytocontrol is thus able to search for all mycotoxins subject to European regulations (EU 1881/2006, EU 401/2006 and EU 2002/32) as well as certain secondary mycotoxins.

Phytocontrol is accredited by COFRAC according to LAB GTA 21 (Program 99-1) for the determination of mycotoxins in all foodstuffs intended for humans and animals, and infant food.
