About This Product
An aflatoxin meter of this type reads the colour change produced in an ELISA kit and converts it into a quantity of aflatoxin B1. The source lists food, feed, oils and fats, dairy products, pharmaceuticals, beverages and wine products as sample types, which makes it relevant to food science and food analysis training.
