Quantify aflatoxin B1, B2, G1, and G2 in capsules, powders, and herbal blends using LC-MS/MS. Compliant with FDA and EU action limits.
Aflatoxins are potent carcinogens produced by Aspergillus molds common in botanical and grain-based ingredients.
Herbs, spices, and herbal extracts are high-risk for aflatoxin contamination.
FDA action level is 20 ppb total aflatoxins in food. Our method detects well below this threshold.
LC-MS/MS provides confirmed quantitation — not just screening — for defensible regulatory data.
We test capsules, tablets, powders, and extracts — not just raw materials.
Every aflatoxin test includes a fully documented Certificate of Analysis.
Submitting takes less than 5 minutes. Most projects turn around in 5–10 business days from sample receipt.
Fill out our sample intake form — sample type, quantity, and timeline. We confirm turnaround and quote within one business day.
We'll send submission instructions and our San Diego shipping address. Most samples ship ambient or cold depending on stability requirements.
Results are delivered as a signed PDF COA within the agreed turnaround. Rush service (2–3 business days) available for urgent timelines.
FDA action level is 20 ppb total aflatoxins (B1+B2+G1+G2). EU limits are stricter at 4 ppb total. We report against both thresholds and note which markets require stricter compliance.
Typically 5–10 grams of finished product or raw material. Capsules and tablets can be submitted whole; we grind in-house.
Yes. Our LC-MS/MS method quantifies B1, B2, G1, and G2 in a single injection. No separate runs required.
Submit your samples and receive an ISO 17025 accreditation pending Certificate of Analysis. Results in 5–10 business days.
