John will bring the EnviroLogix perspective on how to implement rapid mycotoxin testing with EnviroLogix to strengthen feed quality programs and support purchasing and segregation decisions as harvest rolls in: 📅 September 3, 2026 🕓 9:00 AM CDT (Chicago) / 3:00 PM BST (London) /10:00 PM CST (Beijing). https://bit.ly/4g2GXRy Don’t miss the opportunity to hear directly from our EnviroLogix expert as harvest gets underway. #EnviroLogix #Mycotoxins #TotalTox #Harvest2026 #FeedSafety #GrainQuality #RapidTesting #AnimalNutrition

💧 What’s really in the water? Microcystins are toxins associated with harmful algal blooms, making reliable monitoring of surface water an important part of water-quality management. The Envirologix QuantiPlate™ Kit for Microcystins provides quantitative laboratory detection of microcystin toxins in surface water, with a quantitation range of 0.2–2.0 ppb and a validated LOD of 0.10 ppb. 🔬 The ELISA-based assay detects several microcystin variants, including LR, LA, RR and YR, as well as nodularin. From agriculture to environmental monitoring, early detection supports better-informed water-quality decisions. https://lnkd.in/d6JGpX3d #Microcystins #WaterQuality #WaterSafety #HarmfulAlgalBlooms #EnvironmentalMonitoring #ELISA #Diagnostics #EnviroLogix

🌍 Climate change is changing Europe’s mycotoxin risk map. European Environment Agency briefing highlights an important challenge for our industry: as temperatures rise and extreme weather events become more frequent, mycotoxin contamination patterns are expected to shift across Europe. One striking finding: under a +2°C scenario, models predict increased aflatoxin contamination in maize, particularly in Spain, Italy and the Balkans. With greater warming, the risk could expand further north. The EEA also notes that 14% of adults studied across six European countries showed DON exposure above a health-based guidance value. 🌾 For the grain and feed industry, the message is clear: historical assumptions about where mycotoxins occur may no longer be enough. Predict. Monitor. Test early. At EnviroLogix, we believe rapid and reliable detection will become even more important as mycotoxin risks continue to evolve. https://lnkd.in/dfdUB-rR #Mycotoxins #ClimateChange #Aflatoxin #DON #GrainQuality #FeedSafety #FoodSafety #RapidTesting #Agriculture #EnviroLogix

🌽 Stop mycotoxins at the source. Test before it’s too late. Should you focus mycotoxin testing on finished feed or start with the raw materials coming through the door? In this short video, David Steiner explains why effective mycotoxin control starts at intake. Testing incoming raw materials helps you: ✅ Identify risks earlier 💰 Reduce waste, rework and costly recalls 🎯 Make better decisions before contaminated ingredients enter production The earlier you know, the more options you have. 🎥 Watch David Steiner explain why control starts at intake. #Mycotoxins #FeedSafety #RawMaterials #FeedIndustry #QualityControl #RapidTesting #AnimalNutrition #EnviroLogix

🎥 Mycotoxins: from scientific diagnosis to strategic control At PANA 2026, Dr. Carlos Augusto Mallmann, a recognized expert in mycotoxins, shared his perspective on one of the key challenges facing modern animal nutrition: moving from simply detecting mycotoxins to making better, science-based decisions. For the feed industry, accurate diagnosis is the starting point. Reliable and timely testing helps us understand the real risk, respond faster, and build more effective mycotoxin management strategies. 🔬 At EnviroLogix, we believe rapid detection plays an essential role in connecting laboratory knowledge with decisions at the feed mill and in the field. ▶️ Worth watching for anyone working in feed safety, animal nutrition, and mycotoxin management.

🌡️ Europe’s heatwaves aren’t just affecting yields, they may also be changing the mycotoxin risk map. Successive heatwaves and severe drought conditions are putting European agriculture under increasing pressure, with grain-producing regions among those affected. For the grain and feed industry, this raises another important question: how could changing weather patterns influence mycotoxin risk? Hot and dry conditions can favor certain fungi and toxins, including aflatoxins, in regions where they have historically received less attention. 🌾 The takeaway? Historical risk maps may no longer be enough. As climate patterns evolve, proactive monitoring and early detection become increasingly important for protecting grain quality and feed safety. At EnviroLogix, we believe being prepared starts with knowing what’s in your grain, before it becomes a problem. https://lnkd.in/dpYyby7W #Mycotoxins #Aflatoxin #ClimateChange #GrainQuality #FeedSafety #Harvest2026 #Agriculture #RapidTesting #EnviroLogix

⏱️ Results in minutes, not days. During harvest, every minute matters. Waiting for mycotoxin results can create bottlenecks at grain intake, slow down trucks, and delay critical decisions. In this short video, David Steiner explains how rapid lateral flow testing can turn that bottleneck into a competitive advantage, enabling testing directly at the point of intake and supporting faster, smarter decisions. 🌾 Test faster. Decide sooner. Keep grain moving. #Mycotoxins #RapidTesting #GrainQuality #Harvest #FeedSafety #LateralFlow #GrainIndustry #EnviroLogix

🚨 EU mycotoxin guidance is changing. Feed operators should start preparing now. The European Commission has adopted Recommendation (EU) 2026/1801, updating reference values for key mycotoxins in animal feed, including DON, zearalenone, ochratoxin A, T-2/HT-2 toxins and fumonisins B1+B2. One particularly important development: the new framework places greater emphasis on simultaneous multi-mycotoxin monitoring, reflecting the reality that mycotoxins frequently occur together. Feed operators will also need to integrate the updated reference values into their HACCP-based risk management systems. 📅 General implementation: 1 July 2027 🌽 Higher-risk commodities including maize, sorghum, soybeans and sunflower: 1 October 2027. For the feed industry, the message is clear: monitoring strategies need to evolve from reactive testing toward proactive, risk-based screening. At EnviroLogix, rapid mycotoxin testing can support frequent screening and faster decisions throughout the feed and grain supply chain. #Mycotoxins #FeedSafety #EURegulation #AnimalNutrition #FeedIndustry #HACCP #RapidTesting #GrainQuality #EnviroLogix

📢 Issue #004 of our EnviroLogix EU Newsletter is here! 🌽 When prediction becomes reality. For years, aflatoxins were mainly considered a risk for Southern Europe. But changing climatic conditions and the recent detection of Aflatoxin B1 in Austrian maize show that the risk landscape is evolving. In this edition, we explore why proactive monitoring, representative sampling, and rapid screening are becoming increasingly important as mycotoxin risks shift across Europe. 📖 Check out our latest newsletter to learn more. #Mycotoxins #Aflatoxin #FoodSafety #FeedSafety #GrainQuality #ClimateChange #RapidTesting #EnviroLogix

🌽 When prediction becomes reality: Aflatoxins are no longer only a Southern European concern. For years, aflatoxin risk in Europe was largely associated with warmer southern regions. But the picture is changing. Scientific models predicted that rising temperatures could increase the risk of Aflatoxin B1 contamination in European maize. Today, field observations in Central Europe, including Austria, show why those predictions deserve attention. The message for the grain and feed industry is clear: geography alone can no longer be used to exclude aflatoxin risk. 🔬 Proactive monitoring, representative sampling, and rapid screening can help identify contamination earlier and support faster decisions throughout the supply chain. 📖 Discover more in Issue 004 of our EnviroLogix EU Newsletter – August 2026. #Mycotoxins #Aflatoxin #GrainQuality #FeedSafety #ClimateChange #RapidTesting #FoodSafety #Agriculture #EnviroLogix
