- Immunoaffinity column (IAC)
An IAC is a column with an antibody immobilized in gel designed for cleanups. An IAC offers outstanding selectivity because it uses the property of the antibody to bond to a specific antigen. It is also able to efficiently recover the target substance, resulting in excellent cleanup capability. - Aflatoxin analysis
An aflatoxin is a highly virulent mycotoxin that is frequently detected in a wide variety of foodstuffs and animal feeds. Although a large number of aflatoxin-related compounds have been discovered to date, it is aflatoxins B1, B2, G1, G2, and M1 that have presented problems in food safety. Aflatoxin B1, in particular, is known to be extremely carcinogenic when produced in nature.
