The state – of – the – art in the analysis of estrogenic mycotoxins in cereals.

A review with 54 references discussing the state – of – the – art in the analysis of oestrogenic mycotoxins in cereals, with special emphasis on ZEA as its most relevant representative. Immunoaffinity columns followed by HPLC with fluorescence detection and immunoassays are currently the most frequently used methods for the determination of ZEA and its metabolites, and these techniques are discussed in more detail. The great potential of HPLC – MS (MS) for the simultaneous detection and identification of several oestrogenic mycotoxins is discussed. International intercomparison studies have revealed the need for better means of external quality assurance measure, especially the availability of certified reference materials and certified standards.
