Abstract

An overview is given on recent trends and applications of rapid immunodiagnostic tests for screening of food and feed for mycotoxins. Different test formats are discussed, and challenges in the development of lateral-flow devices for on-site determination of mycotoxins, with requirements such as being robust, fast, and cost-effective, are briefly elucidated.
