Aflatoxin G2（Cat No.:R010790）is a mycotoxin produced by certain Aspergillus species, particularly Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus, found in contaminated crops such as nuts, grains, and spices. It is part of the aflatoxin family, which is known for its potent carcinogenic and hepatotoxic effects. Aflatoxin G2 fluoresces blue-green under UV light, aiding in its detection. Exposure to aflatoxins, even at low levels, poses serious health risks, especially liver damage and increased cancer risk. Monitoring and controlling aflatoxin contamination in food supplies are crucial for food safety and public health.
