Clinical Microbiology and Mycotoxins

Chromatography of Mycotoxins

The most necessary principles of sample preparation, extraction, clean-up, and of established and prospective natural action techniques are mentioned in relevance mycotoxins. Mycotoxins are principally organized consistent with families, like aflatoxins, trichothecenes, lactones etc. natural action of individual necessary mycotoxins and multi-mycotoxins natural action analyses also are enclosed. Generally, all chemical analytical strategies for the determination of mycotoxins embrace the fundamental steps of ex— traction, clean—up, separation, detection, quantitation and confirmation of identity. Most generally used are those techniques that embrace a chromato— graphic step to separate the plant toxin of interest (minicolumn chromato— graphy, skinny layer natural action, high performance liquid natural action and gas liquid chromatography).
