Mycotoxin testing is a specialized laboratory analysis that detects the presence of toxic metabolites produced by mold. These toxins—called mycotoxins—can accumulate in the body from environmental exposure to water-damaged buildings, contaminated food, or hidden mold sources. This non-invasive test provides critical insight into mold toxicity and its potential impact on your health.

The MycoToxin Panel tests for 16 of the most common mycotoxins emitted by 300 varieties of molds, providing insights into potential mold toxicity.

Toxins Tested

• Aflatoxins

• Aflatoxin B1

• Aflatoxin B2

• Aflatoxin G1

• Aflatoxin G2

• Stratoxin G

• Stratoxin H

• Isosatratoxin F

Testing Method

The Mycotoxin Panel is run using Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). An established immunological technique, ELISA is widely used to detect the presence of specific antibodies or antigens in a patient’s blood.

The ELISA method detects mycotoxins that have been structurally modified within the body providing more accurate results than similar testing run through mass spectrometry.
