ROSA AFQ-WETS3 Aflatoxin Quantitative Test (AFQ-WETS3)

The ROSA AFQ-WETS3 Aflatoxin Quantitative Test detects aflatoxin rapidly and quantitatively utilizing ROSA (Rapid One Step Assay) lateral flow technology. The WET method uses an extraction powder added to the sample followed by water (e.g., bottled water) to extract aflatoxin.

In 2019, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), Federal Grain Inspection Service (FGIS) reapproved the test kit for the detection of aflatoxin in corn.

This Rapid One Step Assay is a quantitative lateral flow test that is read in the Charm EZ-M system or the ROSA-M Reader.

The ROSA AFQ-WETS3 test is USDA-FGIS approved for detecting aflatoxin in the following commodities:

• Corn

Benefits

• Quantitative results in 3 minutes
• USDA-FGIS approved for Corn
• Materials may be disposed as normal waste providing positive mycotoxin samples do not violate local regulations
• Water extraction – no methanol or ethanol required
• Uses existing equipment; ROSA-M Reader and Charm EZ-M system do not require end-user instrument calibration, standard curve built into reader
