title: Screening methods for the detection of thirteen common mycotoxins.
abstract: A study of screening methods for thirteen mycotoxins showed that they can be separated as neutral and acidic metabolites. RF values were determined in several solvent systems. The reactions of the mycotoxins with well known spray reagents were investigated, and their detection limits were established. A general procedure for the extraction of mycotoxins from contaminated samples is described.
