Aflatoxin is the most common food toxin that is harmful to human and animal health. The most frequent aflatoxins are B1, B2, G1, and G2, which can affect the body through respiratory, mucosal, or cutaneous routes, causing an excessive inflammatory response. Aflatoxin can infect crops during their growing stages or even after they are harvested. It mainly targets the liver and can impair the effectiveness of immunization in children, increasing the risk of infection. Aflatoxin detection and quantification in food and feed is a critical part of food and feed safety concerns.

Description
YesBlot™ Western Marker I is a ready-to-use mixture with ten IgG-binding proteins covering a wide range of molecular weights from 15 to 200 kDa in Tris-Glycine buffer. YesBlot™ Western Marker I performs dual functions. First, it contains 4 pre-stained proteins (10, 25, 45 and 70 kDa) for monitoring protein separation during SDS-PAGE, verification of Western transfer efficiency on membranes (nitrocellulose, PVDF, or nylon) and for approximating the protein size. Second, ten IgG-binding proteins can be immuno-detected on film or by CCD imaging. YesBlot™ Western Marker I is compatible for chemiluminescent, fluorescent, chromogenic or other detection systems. In addition, YesBlot™ Western Marker I has two reference bands with enhanced intensity (at 30 kDa and 80 kDa). The marker is supplied in the gel loading buffer and is ready to use. Do NOT heat, dilute, or add reducing agents before loading.
Features
Direct visualization — 10 IgG-binding proteins for direct visualization on Western blots
Pre-stained bands — 4 prestained proteins for monitoring protein separation during electrophoresis and Western blotting transferring efficiency on membrane
Wide range — 10 clear bands from 15 to 200 kDa for size estimation
Quick reference — two enhanced bands (30 and 80 kDa)
Contents
The YesBlot™ Western Marker I contains recombinant IgG binding proteins, prestained recombinant proteins, glycerol and SDS.
Storage
4°C for 3 months -20°C for 24 months

Escherichia coli is one of many species of bacteria living in the lower intestines of mammals, known as gut flora. When located in the large intestine, it assists with waste processing, vitamin K production, and food absorption. Discovered in 1885 by Theodor Escherich, a German pediatrician and bacteriologist, E. coli are abundant: the number of individual E. coli bacteria in the faeces that a human defecates in one day averages between 100 billion and 10 trillion. However, the bacteria are not confined to the environment, and specimens have also been located, for example, on the edge of hot springs. The E. coli strain O157:H7 is one of hundreds of strains of the bacterium that causes illness in humans.
E. coli are unable to sporulate. Thus, treatments which kill all active bacteria, such as pasteurization or simple boiling, are effective for their eradication, without requiring the more rigorous sterilization which also deactivates spores. As a result of their adaptation to mammalian intestines, E. coli grow best in vivo or at the higher temperatures characteristic of such an environment, rather than the cooler temperatures found in soil and other environments.
The enteric E. coli (EC) are divided on the basis of virulence properties into enterotoxigenic (ETEC – causative agent of diarrhea in humans, pigs, sheep, goats, cattle, dogs, and horses), enteropathogenic (EPEC – causative agent of diarrhea in humans, rabbits, dogs, cats and horses); enteroinvasive (EIEC – found only in humans), verotoxigenic (VTEC – found in pigs, cattle, dogs and cats); enterohaemorrhagic (EHEC – found in humans, cattle, and goats, attacking porcine strains that colonize the gut in a manner similar to human EPEC strains) and enteroaggregative E. coli (EAggEC – found only in humans).
E. coli O157:H7 was first recognized as a pathogen as a result of an outbreak of unusual gastrointestinal illness in 1982. The outbreak was traced to contaminated hamburgers, and the illness was similar to other incidents in the United States and Japan. The etiologic agent of the illness was identified as a rare O157:H7 serotype of Escherichia coli in 1983. This serotype had only been isolated once before, from a sick patient in 1975.
