Description

Aflatoxicol Ii is a significant metabolite and derivative of aflatoxin B1, a potent mycotoxin. This compound is of critical importance for research and analytical purposes, particularly in the study of mycotoxin metabolism, toxicology, and food safety. It is primarily utilized by analytical laboratories, research institutions, and quality control departments within the food, agriculture, and pharmaceutical industries for use as a reference standard.

Application

• Analytical Reference Standard: Primary use as a high-purity certified reference material (CRM) for the calibration of analytical instruments and validation of testing methods.
• Toxicology Research: Essential for in-vitro and in-vivo studies investigating the metabolic pathways, bioactivation, and cellular toxicity mechanisms of aflatoxins.
• Food Safety Testing: Used in the development and quality control of immunoassays, HPLC, and LC-MS/MS methods to detect and quantify aflatoxin metabolites in food and feed matrices.
• Method Development & Validation: Critical for laboratories establishing or accrediting testing procedures according to ISO, AOAC, or other international standards.
• Pharmaceutical Impurity Profiling: Employed in research to understand potential mycotoxin contamination in herbal medicines and agricultural-sourced raw materials.
• Environmental Monitoring: Supports studies on the fate and transformation of aflatoxins in agricultural environments and commodities.

Quality Control

Our Aflatoxicol Ii is produced and handled under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity confirmation and identity verification by spectroscopic methods (IR, MS, NMR). We provide a detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) with each shipment, ensuring traceability and compliance with the requirements for high-grade reference materials. Certificates are available upon request and can support your ISO 17025 or GLP accreditation needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at recommended temperatures of -20°C or below for long-term stability. This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and should be handled in a controlled environment to prevent degradation. Allow the sealed vial to equilibrate to room temperature before opening to minimize moisture condensation.
