- Mycotoxin testing, essential for detecting and quantifying harmful fungal toxins in food, feed, and pharmaceuticals, is increasingly vital due to its role in ensuring safety, compliance with stringent regulations, and protecting public health
- The demand for mycotoxin testing is fueled by heightened concerns over food safety, the expansion of the food and beverage industry, and the need for reliable testing methods to mitigate risks associated with mycotoxin contamination
- The U.S. dominated the North America mycotoxin testing market with the largest revenue share of 65.3% in 2024, driven by robust regulatory frameworks, high adoption of advanced testing technologies, and a strong presence of key market players. The country sees significant demand in food and feed testing, particularly in grain and dairy industries, supported by innovations in chromatography and immunoassay-based technologies
- Canada is expected to be the fastest-growing country in the North America mycotoxin testing market during the forecast period, attributed to increasing agricultural exports, rising awareness of food safety standards, and investments in testing infrastructure
- The aflatoxins segment dominated the largest market revenue share of 30.2% in 2024, driven by their high toxicity, carcinogenic properties, and frequent occurrence in food and feed products such as grains, nuts, and spices
