Description

Aflatoxin B2- 13 C 17 is a stable isotope-labeled internal standard of the potent mycotoxin Aflatoxin B2, essential for accurate quantitative analysis. This high-purity reference material is critical for ensuring data integrity and regulatory compliance in sensitive analytical workflows. It is primarily required by analytical laboratories, food safety agencies, and research institutions involved in mycotoxin testing, method development, and metabolomic studies.

Application

• Internal Standard for Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS, GC-MS): Used for precise quantification of native Aflatoxin B2 in complex matrices, correcting for analyte loss during sample preparation and instrument variability.
• Food and Feed Safety Analysis: Critical for testing grains, nuts, spices, and animal feed to comply with strict international regulatory limits set by the FDA, EFSA, and other bodies.
• Method Development and Validation: Serves as a key component in establishing, optimizing, and validating new analytical methods for mycotoxin detection.
• Clinical and Diagnostic Research: Employed in studies investigating aflatoxin exposure biomarkers in human biological samples (e.g., urine, blood).
• Quality Control and Proficiency Testing: Used by manufacturers of diagnostic kits and by laboratories participating in inter-laboratory comparison programs to ensure accuracy.
• Metabolic Fate and Toxicokinetic Studies: Enables tracing and quantification of aflatoxin metabolites in in vitro and in vivo research models.
