Mycotoxins, toxic byproducts of certain molds, pose a serious food safety threat. The Food and Agriculture Organization estimates that up to a quarter of the world’s crops are contaminated with them.
As the food industry expands globally, the need for mycotoxin testing grows. Test results directly impact market share and profitability. Products that meet strict purity standards fetch higher prices and satisfy tough trade regulations, opening doors to markets like the European Union. Regular mycotoxin testing is now standard practice, offering cost-effective business protection and ensuring the health of consumers and industry stakeholders alike.
