Fungi 3 Test Kit<br />
24vials<br />
Additional important fungi, many of which produce mycotoxins that are dangerous for human health. We<br />
often think viruses are the most important threat, but fungal infections, while often less dramatic, can have<br />
profound and long lasting effects on health. The fungus can have a direct effect (e.g. an allergic reaction) or<br />
they can affect health through the mycotoxins they produce. We also have a Mycotoxins Test Kit.<br />
