Deoxynivalenol (DON, Vomitoxin) in addition to zearalenone, fumonisines and other trichothecenes belongs to the fusarium toxins. These toxins are already produced on the field in consequence of a contact of the cereals by fusarium species. Acute toxic dosages result in sickness and emesis. Deoxynivalenol is a gastrointestinal irritant and an inhibitor in protein synthesis. Farm animals react with a delay of growth and a depressed immune system resulting in a higher sensitivity for infections. Since June 2010 the US Food and Drug Association recommends maximum amounts of 1000 ppb for finished cereal products and 2000 - 10000 ppb for raw cereals depending on the intended use. Thus an monitoring of food and feed with respect to the concentration of deoxynivalenol is obligatory. The Deoxynivalenol ELISA Kit represents a highly sensitive detection system and is particulary capable of the rapid quantification of deoxynivalenol contaminations in cereals and beer.
