New rapid test (10’) for Aflatoxin M1 determination in milk according to European limits (50 ppt)

Quick Afla M1 Test Strip - Rapid test for Aflatoxin M1 in milk 

The new Quick Afla M1 Strip Test kit allows the rapid and visual qualitative/semiquantitative determination (10 minutes) of Aflatoxin M1 in milk samples. The results become quantitative when the kit is used in combination with RDS-2500 Strip Reader.

The assay can be realized in 2 easy steps: the milk sample is added to a reaction well which contains a lyophilized reagent, mixed and incubated at room temperature for 5 minutes. Then a test strip is inserted in the reaction well and incubated for another 5-minute step.

The test requires no incubator !

All that is needed for the analysis comes with the kit, including a reusable 200 μL micropipette and the disposable tips: therefore the test can be performed everywhere. Quick Afla M1 Strip Test can be stored at 2°-8°C for 12 months from date of production.
