Abstract:
A multi-analyte column is disclosed. The column may contain at least one unit of resin having ochratoxin specific affinity and, for each unit of resin having ochratoxin specific affinity, the column further contains about 0. 95 to 1. 05 units of resin containing antibody having specificity for zearalenone, about 1. 9 to 2. 1 units of resin containing antibody having specificity for aflatoxin, about 2. 35 to 2. 65 units of resin containing antibody having specificity for fumonisin, about 2. 8 to 3. 2 units of resin containing antibody having specificity for T-2 (and/or HT-2) and about 4. 7 to 5. 3 units of resin containing antibody having specificity for deoxynivalenol. One unit of resin is the quantity of resin containing antibody that will bind 50 ng of aflatoxin, 500 ng of deoxynivalenol, 3300 ng of fumonisin, 50 ng of ochratoxin, 830 ng T-2 (and/or HT-2) or 1140 ng of zearalenone, respectively.
