This test method is a widely used immunoaffinity column (IAC) based assay designed for the detection and quantification of total aflatoxins (B1, B2, G1, and G2) in various food and feed samples. It offers a rapid, sensitive, and user-friendly approach for screening aflatoxin contamination.
This test method is a standard method for the determination of Deoxynivalenol (DON), a mycotoxin, in cereals and cereal-based products using ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) with a single chromatographic column.
This test method is a procedure that utilizes immunoaffinity columns (IACs) designed for the cleanup and concentration of multiple mycotoxins (Deoxynivalenol (DON), aflatoxins (B1, B2, G1, G2), ochratoxin, zearalenone, fumonisins (B1, B2, B3), T-2, and HT-2) from food and feed samples prior to analysis by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS).
This test method is an automated, standardized approach used to measure the fiber content in feed and forage samples. NDF represents the cell wall components, including cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, which are important for assessing forage quality and digestibility.
The sequential test method using ANKOM Technology allows for the determination of Neutral Detergent Fiber (NDF) followed by Acid Detergent Fiber (ADF) in forage and feed samples using automated filter bag systems. This approach provides a comprehensive fiber profile critical for assessing feed quality and digestibility.
The combustion method for neutral detergent insoluble protein (NDIP) is used to measure the amount of indigestible protein bound within the fiber portion of animal feed, particularly relevant for assessing heat-damaged or low-quality proteins. In this method, the feed sample is treated with an acid detergent solution to isolate the neutral detergent fiber (NDF), which… Continue reading Neutral Detergent Insoluble Protein [Combustion]

This test method is a procedure for calculating the Nitrogen-Free Extract (NFE) in food and feed samples. NFE represents the portion of carbohydrates that are not accounted for by fiber, moisture, ash, or protein, essentially reflecting the readily digestible carbohydrate content.
This test method is a procedure for the determination of Non-Protein Nitrogen (NPN) in various samples, primarily in dairy products and animal feeds. NPN includes nitrogen compounds not incorporated into proteins, such as free amino acids, urea, and ammonia.
This test method is an official method for the quantitative determination of multiple metals and elements in plant materials and pet foods using Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometry (ICP-OES) post-open block digestion. This method provides reliable analysis of essential nutrients and potential contaminants in complex biological matrices. This test method quantifies calcium, copper, iron,… Continue reading Minerals [Feed]
