Are there Mycotoxins in your air or food?

Mycotoxins can be produced by fungi growing on crops during field or storage

conditions and on damp building materials. Emerging research indicates that

exposure to mycotoxins may lead to a variety of health effects. Some of the more

common exposures can be traced to ingestion of contaminated foods and feed.

Examples of contaminated food ingredients include: barley, corn, rice, soybean,

wheat, etc. The types and quantity of the mycotoxins produced depend on the

fungi present and on the environmental conditions.

Recent news articles related to aflatoxin exposures have reignited the concerns

over potential human exposures as a number of grain supplies have become tainted

resulting in serious health-effects to livestock.

" EMSL Analytical, Inc. has a talented, committed and renowned group of

scientists dedicated to producing the highest level of analytical data " ,

reported Dobranic, Ph.D., National Director of Microbiology at EMSL.

" Analytical expertise coupled with industry leading customer service is the key

to providing our clients with the level of service that they've come to expect

from EMSL, " continued Dr. Dobranic.
