The MaxSignal® Zearalenone ELISA Kit is a competitive ELISA for the quantitative analysis of zearalenone in a variety of sample types. Zearalenone (also know as ZEA or ZON) is a toxin produced by fungi of the genus Fusarium. It is found worldwide in a number of cereal crops such as maize, barley, oats, wheat, rice and sorghum. Zearalenone is a phytohormone which displays, apart from its anabolic properties, mainly estrogenic effects. Because of its estrogenic properties, zearalenone may induce fertility disorders in animals.
Two versions of MaxSignal Zearalenone ELISA Kit are available; Cat # 1035-01, providing the highest sensitivity, and Cat # 1035-03, providing a unique, rapid protocol.
This kit is manufactured to the international quality standard ISO 9001.

Mycotoxins are naturally occurring toxins produced by molds or fungi, most often developed due to extreme weather events. To help you detect mycotoxins and aflatoxins in grain and cereals, PerkinElmer has developed a wide range of test kits and strip tests able to perform key protective measures and ensure grains are free of harmful toxins before entering the food supply. A comprehensive brochure is available to give an overview of our best-in-class accessories that can provide you with the most reliable food safety tests and analysis.
Feed milling today is a complex business, and agribusinesses both large and small need to balance the nutritional and safety needs of livestock with availability of raw ingredients and their seasonality and variability. Add to that the valuable supplementation and medication that millers supply, and it’s clear: you’re creating a complete nutritional delivery system, not just a simple mix of grains.
