As the global leader in mycotoxin risk management, BIOMIN is proud to provide you with a global test report on mycotoxins in the third quarter of 2011, which will allow you to assess the risk level of mycotoxin contamination in different regions. In July-September 2011, BIOMIN detected a total of 4,774 samples of 1,360 samples worldwide. In these samples of feed and raw materials, the content of the five most important mycotoxins was detected and analyzed - aflatoxin (Afla), zearalenone (ZON), vomiting toxin (DON), fumagillin (FUM), and ochratoxin A (OTA) (shown in the following section as the abbreviation).
Samples come from different regions of the world: the Americas (South America and North America), Asia (Southeast Asia, North and South Asia), Oceania, Europe (Northern Europe, Central and Southern Europe) and the Middle East and Africa. Samples tested included grains such as corn, wheat, barley, rice, processed products such as soybean meal, corn germ meal, DDGS, as well as straw, silage and full-price feed. This is the third of the four test reports released by BIOMIN this year. If you feel that this report is useful to you, please don't miss the other three quarterly test reports of mycotoxins.
The results shown in Figure 1 summarize the contamination profiles of mycotoxins in different parts of the world.

As shown in Figure 2, the positive detection rates of the five mycotoxins-aflatoxin, zearalenone, vomiting toxin, fumagillin and ochratoxin detected from 804 samples were 24%. 31%, 48%, 50% and 18%. As can be seen from Figure 3, mycotoxins are clearly a global problem, with 66% of samples being detected to be contaminated with at least one mycotoxin and 35% by at least 2 mycotoxins. It must be noted that if there are multiple mycotoxins in animal feed, the possible synergistic effect between the toxins will result in a significant increase in the toxicity of mycotoxins in the feed.
Table 1-5 shows the detailed mycotoxin test results in different areas. The specific indicators are the number of samples tested, the positive detection rate, the positive average value, the 75th percentile value, and the highest mycotoxin contamination. The 75th percentile value indicates that 25% of the test samples have a mycotoxin contamination level equal to or higher than the data.
Hexagon nuts (also known as finished hexagon nuts) are available in ASTM A563-A and are compatible with mild steel Bolts, such as ASTM A307, ASTM F1554 Grade 36, SAE Grade 2 and AASHTO M183. SAE Grade 5 and Grade 8 nuts are also available in finished style. Since hot-dip galvanizing usually increases the thickness of the threaded part of the fastener by 2.2 to 5 mils, the thread size of the galvanized hexagon nut is too large to compensate for the anti-corrosion coating on the bolt.
Chinese hex nut manufacturer Hongchuang Hardware provides hex nuts of various materials, such as carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy steel, titanium, etc.
