Abstract
Two polymers were computationally designed with affinity to two of the most abundant mycotoxins aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) and ochratoxin A (OTA) for application in the ToxiQuant T1 System. The principle of quantification of AFB1 and OTA using the ToxiQuant T1 instrument comprised of a fluorimetric analysis of mycotoxins adsorbed on the polymer upon exposure to UV light. High affinity of the developed resins allowed the adsorption of both toxins as discrete bands on the top of the cartridge with detection limit as low as 1 ng quantity of mycotoxins.
