An improved dual-expression concept, generating high-quality antibodies for proteomics research.

abstract：:Considering the widespread contaminations of food products with mycotoxins, it is important to develop, robust, time- and cost-effective detection methods. We developed and optimized an immunoassay using a continuous flow system for the detection of zearalenone (ZEN). The assay was performed in a flow mode using an au...
