Simple methodology for the determination of mycotoxins in pseudocereals, spelt and rice

Nowadays the interest and consumption of pseudocereals is increasing due to their nutritional properties. Like cereals and oilseeds, pseudocereal seeds are susceptible to fungal growth and mycotoxin contamination; however these matrices have received little attention in literature. A sensitive, simple … Continue reading
