Toxin diagnosis by means of biochip: using a glass biochip, scientists can determine within a few minutes for example how heavily a batch of cereal is contaminated with mycotoxins.

Map Ta Puth, Thailand: Bayer Technology Services engineered the new polycarbonate (Makrolon®) facilities of Bayer MaterialScience. Foreground: Bisphenol-A-silo.

Bayer Technology Services is engaged in process development and engineering, construction and optimization worldwide: Polycarbonate (Makrolon®) unit of Bayer MaterialScience in Baytown, Texas, USA.

Biochip manufacture: a pipetting robot applies precisely dosed drops of various mycotoxins to a chip in a fully automatic procedure. The mycotoxins are attached to the surface of the chip by another protein.

Lab-Lasershow: Dr.Ingmar Dorn (l.) and Dr. Kerstin Bohmann examine laserbeam for measurement of fluorine.

To determine the mycotoxin content, the mycotoxins are extracted from the cereal, mixed with fluorescence antibodies and applied to the biochip.
