ROSA Ochratoxin Quantitative Test for Feed and Grain
Ochratoxin is produced by the molds Penicillium and Aspergillus and is known to cause nephropathy in farm animals. The ROSA OCHRAQ test enables grain and feed producers to detect ochratoxin quantitatively. This Rapid One Step Assay is a lateral flow test that is read on the Charm EZ-M system or the ROSA-M Reader.
Validated by the USDA FGIS (Federal Grain Inspection Service) using a 70% methanol extraction for detecting ochratoxin in 11 commodities.
• Barley • Buckwheat • Corn • Corn Gluten Meal • Malted Barley • Oat Groats • Rye • Sorghum • Soybean Meal • Soybeans • Wheat
