MYCOKEY Workshop ‐ Training Course 2019

Rapid Methods for Mycotoxin Detection

in the Food/Feed Chain

The Oil Crops Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences (OCRI‐CAAS) in collaboration with the Institute of Sciences of Food Production, National Research Council of Italy (ISPA‐CNR), under the aegis of the MYCOKEY project, is hosting a one‐week Workshop‐Training Course on “Rapid Methods for Mycotoxin Detection in the Food/Feed Chain” from November 18‐22, 2019.

The course will give information about major issues associated with mycotoxin analysis and contamination along the food/feed chain. Lectures and laboratory training will be provided on routinely used and advanced screening tools for rapid, robust and user‐friendly analysis of mycotoxins.

Practical training in the laboratory will cover most of the course and trainees will be assisted individually in the laboratory by OCRI‐CAAS experts in instrumental and immunochemical analysis of mycotoxins.

The course covers:

• Lectures: Mycotoxins/toxigenic fungi: occurrence, risks and regulations; Sampling and overview of traditional and rapid methods for mycotoxin detection; LC‐MS methods for multi‐mycotoxin analysis.
• Laboratory: Enzyme Linked Immuno Sorbent Assay; Strip test and Lateral Flow Device; Fluorescence Polarization Immunoassay; Time‐Resolved Fluorescence Immunoassay; Biochip Array Technology; Liquid Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry.

We cordially invite you to attend the MYCOKEY Workshop ‐ Training Course 2019
