Analytical challenges of modified and multi-mycotoxin contamination

The analytical problems in detecting the type and content of modified and multi-mycotoxins are not often discussed in media, yet they are common in laboratory practice and have a strong influence on mycotoxin management strategies. In this recent study, researchers shed more light on the approach and understanding of the challenges. Mycotoxins are a huge global feed and food safety concern, especially considering recent estimates that they contaminate 60 – 80% of the food produced worldwide
