EagleBio’s Immunoaffinity Columns
Effective, Efficient Tools for Mycotoxin Contamination & Vitamin Analysis
Eagle Biosciences’ Immunology Assay Kit line is a complete group of products comprised of a unique,versatile set of products for a variety of applications, research, and fields of study surrounding overall immunological health and immunological-related disorders. Some of the most unique products in our Immunology Assay Kit Line are the Immunoaffinity Columns which are effective and efficient tools for assessing and measuring mycotoxin contamination and providing vitamin analysis. Individually, each of these columns: Fumonisin Immunoaffinity Column, Aflatoxin Immunoaffinity Column, Ochratoxin Immunoaffinity Column, Folic Acid Immunoaffinity Column, and Biotin Immunoaffinity Column offer a variety of advantages over other competing immunoaffinity columns such as ease of use and high-specificity. Collectively, this line offers researchers a column for every research need pertaining to food and feed analysis.
Why Measure Mycotoxins and Vitamins in Food and Feed?
Evaluation of food and feed through myotoxin and vitamin analysis is important for assessing its composition and contamination level for providing safety to those who consume them.
Mycotoxins are fungal toxins and occur either in the growth phase of plants, when storing food, and raw materials such as cereals and nuts, or they can enter the food chain as metabolites. High levels of mycotoxins can endanger humans and other vertebrates, thus continued testing should be done to ensure that these toxins remain at acceptable levels in the food.
Vitamin analysis in food also has a variety of purposes. In fact, it is used to provide quality assurance
for supplemented products; to study changes in vitamin content attributable to
food processing, packing, and storage. This type of analysis also helps to provide data for food composition tables and to check compliance with contract specifications and nutrient labeling regulation.

Study Summary:
In normal adult cells, the structure at the ends of chromosomes, called the telomere, becomes progressively shorter with each replication cycle. When telomeres get too short or damaged, the cell stops dividing and becomes senescent. The enzyme telomerase maintains the integrity of telomeres, and phosphorylation stabilizes the catalytic subunit (called TERT) of this enzyme. In both normal fibroblasts and lung cancer cells, Panneer Selvam et al. found that binding of the phospholipid S1P to TERT mimicked protein phosphorylation and prevented TERT degration. Disrupting the interaction between S1P and TERT by either depleting S1P or mutating the interaction site in TERT impaired telomere maintenance and promoted senescence in cultured cells and decreased the growth of lung cancer cell xenografts in mice. Researchers utilized Eagle Biosciences’Biotin ELISA Assay Kit to measure levels of Biotin in Biotinylated S1P–bound hTERT proteins.
