TLC and HPLC methods for analysis of trichothecenes in commodities

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Current Topics in Veterinary Medicine and Animal Science ((CTVM,volume 33))

Abstract

The problems presented to the analytical chemist in the analysis of foods and feeds for trichothecenes are unique because the chemical structures and therefore the chemical and physical properties vary widely among the individual members of this large group of natural products. Ueno [29] has grouped the trichothecenes in four general categories (A, B, C, D) based on chemical structure (see Fig. 1).
