This test screens for 16 mycotoxins using competitive ELISA, a highly sensitive antibody-based detection method. Results are reported in parts-per-billion (ppb) and indicate whether each toxin was present, not present, or equivocal.

• Ochratoxin A — produced by Aspergillus and Penicillium; linked to kidney disease and cancer with prolonged exposure
• Aflatoxin Group (B1, G1, M1) — produced by Aspergillus species; carcinogenic, mutagenic, and linked to liver and kidney damage
• Macrocyclic Trichothecene Group — produced by Stachybotrys ("black mold") and other species; commonly found in water-damaged buildings and HVAC systems
• Gliotoxin-Derivative — produced by Aspergillus, Candida, and other species; has immunosuppressive properties and can damage DNA
• Zearalenone — produced by Fusarium species; acts as an estrogen mimic and is linked to reproductive, immune, and blood-related harm
