Vicam® FumoniTest WB Columns

Immunoffinity columns are used for isolation of Fumonisins from samples followed by HPLC. Fumonisins are mycotoxins produced by the fungus Fusarium moniliforme. Frequent, almost universal inhabitants of corn, Fumonisin B1 and fumonisin B2 are present in most corn samples tested. Fumonisin is thought to cause equine leukoencephalo­malacia in horses, swine pulmonary edema, and human esophageal cancer.
