Detection of aflatoxin using small columns of florisil

1972 Journal of the American Oil Chemists Society 22 citations

Abstract

Abstract This simplified procedure to detect aflatoxin in cottonseed and cottonseed products can be used at the field level where equipment for thin layer chromatography is not available. Contamination levels as low as 10 ppb can be detected in these columns or tubes using longwave uv light. Development and detection of aflatoxin in these tubes takes ca. 10 min.
