Objective
Mycotoxins are highly toxic fungal metabolites, found in foods, that attract world-wide attention because of the significant economic losses caused by their impact on human health, animal productivity and both domestic and international trade. The populations of developed countries are protected from mycotoxins by the introduction of strict regulations (e.g. EC Regulation No. 1525/98 for the aflatoxins) that restrict the levels of mycotoxins allowed in foods. Although mycotoxins can be detected and quantified using traditional chromatographic complex to be used by most SMEs within the food chain. The planned project deliverable consists of a robust, inexpensive combination of simple sample preparation procedures, and the isolation of mycotoxins on disposable 'mini-columns', prior to their fully quantitative determination using a novel inexpensive, portable fluorimetric detector.
