Molds & Mycotoxins

Reliable information is powerful in combating mold and mycotoxin contamination in feeds.Chemistry Technical Director, Brian, uses the HPLC-MS/MS for mycotoxin analysis at Dairyland Labs.

Research shows that molds and mycotoxins destroy nutrients, reduce palatability, and decreased animal performance.  So, if concerns exist, let tests and analyses at Dairyland Laboratories take the question out of questionable feedstuffs.

Molds are various fungi that grow in crops and animal feed.  Common signs of molds may include dustiness, caking, off color or feed refusal by animal. In some circumstances, molds may be present and not visible to the naked eye.

Mycotoxins are highly toxic byproducts of mold growth in crops and animal feed. Even small to moderate levels prove harmful to livestock.  Reliable detection of mycotoxins across all feed types requires highly sophisticated equipment (HPLC/MS/MS) and trained laboratory staff that specialize in this discipline. Dairyland performs all mycotoxin analysis in-house and uses HPLC/MS/MS instrumentation, which is the “Gold Standard” in mycotoxin determination. Furthermore, Dairyland staff have been testing for mycotoxins for over 32 years.

Dairyland Laboratories has the knowledge, instrumentation, and resources for reliable mycotoxin determination.
