How It Works
The Charm II Aflatoxin Test uses a binding reagent with specific receptor sites that bind aflatoxin M1. The binder is added to a sample along with an exempt amount of labeled aflatoxin M1 (tracer). Any aflatoxin in the sample competes for the binding sites with this tracer. The amount of tracer that binds to the receptor sites is measured and compared to a previously determined Control Point. The Control Point is the cutoff point between a negative or positive sample. The greater the amount of tracer measured, the lower the aflatoxin concentration in the sample. The smaller the amount of tracer measured the greater the aflatoxin concentration in the sample.
