Biopure™ ¹³C Isotope-Labelled Internal Standards

Biopure™ ¹³C-labeled mycotoxins are used as internal standards in analytical methods such as liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) for the accurate quantification of mycotoxins in various samples. The ¹³C label provides a unique mass signature that allows the labeled compound to be distinguished from the naturally occurring, unlabeled mycotoxin during analysis.

By using Biopure™ ¹³C-labeled mycotoxin reference materials, analysts can correct for matrix effects and sample preparation recovery losses, improving the accuracy and reliability of their results.

Biopure™ ISO 17034 Certified Reference Materials

The Biopure™ ISO 17034 Certified Reference Materials are top-quality calibrants that meet the stringent criteria required by ISO 17025-accredited laboratories. Manufactured under ISO 17034 accreditation, these reference materials are characterized by their metrological traceability, homogeneity data, long- and short-term stability data, and a certified value with uncertainty.

Compliant with all pertinent ISO 17025 standards, Biopure™ ISO 17034-certified reference materials are accompanied by a certificate of analysis (CoA) in line with the ISO 17034 standard.

Biopure™ Calibrants

Biopure™ mycotoxin calibrants are high-quality, well-characterized reference materials utilized for the accurate and reliable quantification of mycotoxins in various samples. These reference materials are designed to support analytical methods, ensuring the validity and consistency of results in mycotoxin testing.

Characterized by independent methods, Biopure™ calibrants come with a certificate of analysis created in accordance with ISO Guide 31 and Eurachem guidelines.

Biopure™ calibrants are available in liquid “ready-to-use” and crystalline forms, and as single calibrants as well as calibrant mixtures. Customized calibrants are available upon request.

Quality control materials (QCM)

Romer Labs Quality Control Materials (QCM) consist of naturally contaminated materials with a variety of matrices and contamination levels. These materials undergo rigorous in-house characterization using an ISO 17025 accredited LC-MS/MS method, ensuring accuracy and consistency.

QCMs are available for regulated mycotoxins such as aflatoxin, deoxynivalenol, fumonisin, and zearalenone, as well as multitoxin materials. Certificates of analysis are provided for each batch, enabling users to confidently employ Romer Labs QCMs for method validation, periodic accuracy checks of accredited analytical methods, and as positive control materials in various assays.

StarLine™ Immunoaffinity Columns

StarLine™ immunoaffinity columns (IACs) for regulated mycotoxins are based on a specific antibody-analyte binding technology, where toxin-specific antibodies coupled to gel particles capture the mycotoxins in the sample and release them after a washing step.

These immunoaffinity columns are ideal for the purification and concentration of mycotoxins prior to analysis by various techniques such as HPLC, GC-MS, LC-MS, ELISA, or direct fluorometry.

All Romer Labs IACs employ highly specific, monoclonal antibodies, offering a high purification potential. MultiStar™ immunoaffinity columns, specifically, combine the high purification potential of an immunoaffinity column with the convenience and power of multi-mycotoxin analysis. This allows for all regulated mycotoxins to be determined simultaneously in a single run, simplifying the detection of several mycotoxins at once in a broad range of different commodities.

Overall, StarLine™ immunoaffinity columns offer a reliable solution for mycotoxin cleanup and analysis, allowing for accurate and efficient results across a variety of commodities.

MycoSpin® Cleanup Column

The MycoSpin® 400 is a two-step cleanup column in a spin format designed to be used for most regulated mycotoxins, making the cleanup process faster and more efficient. With MycoSpin® 400, it's possible to analyze multiple mycotoxins simultaneously using LC-MS/MS.

For highly accurate LC-MS/MS results, MycoSpin® 400 cleanup can be combined with Biopure™ 13C isotope labeled standards. This combination enhances the sensitivity and accuracy of the analysis and delivers even more reliable results.

Overall, Romer Labs' MycoSpin® 400 offers a convenient and reliable solution for multi-mycotoxin cleanup, allowing you to obtain highly accurate results with minimal effort.

MultiSep® Cleanup Columns

MultiSep® columns are one-step cleanup columns containing packing materials made of adsorbent mixes that are specially designed for all types of food and feed commodities. With MultiSep®, you can achieve fast cleanup in just 30 seconds.

To use MultiSep® columns, simply apply your extract on top of the column and let it pass through via gravity, vacuum, or positive pressure. As the extract passes through, the packing material will adhere to any interferences while allowing the purified extract containing all the mycotoxins to pass through unimpeded.

Overall, MultiSep® columns offers a convenient and efficient solution for food and feed testing, allowing you to quickly and easily obtain high-quality extracts for analysis.

MycoSep® Cleanup Columns

MycoSep® columns are one-step cleanup columns that contain packing materials made of adsorbent mixes designed specifically for food and feed commodities. With MycoSep®, you can achieve fast cleanup in just 30 seconds for all EU-regulated mycotoxins.

To use MycoSep®, simply push the column into a test tube containing the sample extract, which will filter upwards. As the extract passes through the column, interferences will adhere to the chemical packing material, while the purified extract containing all the mycotoxins can be collected from the top of the cleanup column.

Overall, MycoSep® offers a simple and efficient solution for mycotoxin cleanup, making it easy to obtain high-quality extracts for analysis.
