Perfect separation of the aflatoxins due to derivatization |
|
Comparable to Cobra cell, but no reagents needed |
|
Extremely low-priced |
|
Robust for every-day work |
The UVE derivatization module allows easily analyzing aflatoxins with HPLC. The reaction is a simple derivatization of B1 to B2a
The application can be done easily. Simply place the UVE™ between the HPLC and the fluorescence detector, switch on the system – ready:

Up to now reagents had to be added for the derivatization – whereas the photochemical reactor directly uses the HPLC eluant as reagent. The HPLC system remains clean and can immediately be used for other methods. Any tedious and long lasting rinsing of the system is no longer necessary.
A confirmation analysis of the aflatoxins B1 and G1 can be performed by switching off the system.
The system is very robust and long-living. It has an average shining duration of 8.000 hours.
The photochemical derivatization of aflatoxins was compared to the established derivatization by electrochemically generated bromine (Cobra cell) in an EU lab; both systems work comparably well.

The derivatization leads to a perfect separation of the four aflatoxins B1, B2, G1 and G2.
