Protocols for surveys, sampling, post-collection handling, and analysis of grain samples involved in mycotoxin problems.
This report examines and summarizes current knowledge regarding mycotoxin surveys, sampling techniques, conditions conducive to post-collection production of mycotoxins in grain samples, and analytical methods for mycotoxin analysis. Priority attention is given to samples of corn suspected of containing aflatoxin. The report includes recommendations where deems appropriate by the Ad Hoc Work Group.
