Aflatoxin
Helica™ Aflatoxin ELISA’s
Aflatoxins are a group of toxic chemicals produced by certain types of fungi that can contaminate food crops such as peanuts, corn, and cottonseed. These contaminants can cause serious health problems in humans and animals, making it important to test for their presence in food products. One way to test for aflatoxins is through the use of ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) kits, such as Helica™ Aflatoxin ELISA’s.
Features
- High sensitivity and specificity: Helica™ Aflatoxin ELISA’s have been shown to have high sensitivity and specificity in detecting aflatoxins, ensuring accurate results.
- Rapid results: The assay can be completed within 2-3 hours, allowing for quick detection of aflatoxins in food products.
- Easy to use: The ELISA kit is user-friendly and easy to use, making it accessible for labs of all sizes.
Usage of Aflatoxins
It is ideal for use in a variety of industries such as food processing, packaging, and retail, as well as in pharmaceuticals, personal care products, and medical devices. It can be used to test raw ingredients, finished products, and environmental samples, allowing for quick and accurate identification of Salmonella contamination.

Mycotoxin Testing Made Easy
No clean up columns needed
Helica™ Aflatoxin ELISA kits do not require clean up columns which saves time during the testing process and minimizes the number of extra products needed to run each ELISA test.
Easy Extraction
A simple extraction process to prepare a sample before each test run. Grind your sample, mix with an extraction solution, dilute, and filter and your test is ready to run.
Flexible Volumes
Flexible volumes for reagents and solutions to help you meet your testing needs.
Dozens of Validations
The patented Snap-Valve technology ensures your collected sample remains on the swab during activation. For competitor swabs, the sample surface must break through the foil to reach the chemistry, removing ATP from the collection surface.
Highly Sensitive & Specific
Helica™ Aflatoxin ELISA’s are highly sensitive and specific to the mycotoxin each kit is designed to detect. Our ELISA’s can detect down to as little as 0.1 ppb of aflatoxin with no cross-reactivity to other toxins that may be found in each commodity being tested.
