Ochratoxin A Analysis

Quantitative laboratory analysis using validated methods for the detection of Ochratoxin A. The compound Ochratoxin A is produced from Aspergillus and Penicillium species of molds that commonly occur in field crops exposed to drought and excessive heat conditions. Ochratoxin A is also linked to improper storage contamination potential, meaning that if you have had grains sitting in a storage container for a long period of time that Ochratoxin A has a higher probability of being being produced.
