| 20100264332 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR DETECTION AND MEASUREMENT OF TARGET COMPOUNDS SUCH AS A FOOD TOXIN - A method for the detection or determination of a target comprising a plurality of target compounds, or derivatised target compounds, said method comprising: immobilising said target on a carrier, directing radiation at said target, said radiation being selected to cause said target to emit a relevant radiation, detecting said relevant radiation emitted by said target, and analysing said detected radiation to identify and/or quantify the plurality of target compounds in said target. | 10-21-2010 |
| 20100151583 | SOLID PHASE EXTRACTION OF OCHRATOXINS - Polymers capable of binding ochratoxins are disclosed. The polymers may be used for solid phase extraction of ochratoxins and immobilisation of ochratoxins in solid phase extraction (SPE) cartridges, for qualitative or quantitative analysis of ochratoxins in liquid extracts from foodstuffs or animal feeds. The polymers may be prepared from monomers containing amido or amino-alkyl moieties and acid moieties. Preferred embodiments are polymers prepared from 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropane-sulfonic acid (AMPSA) and from a mixture of diethyl aminoethyl methacrylate (DEAEM) and itaconic acid (IA). The polymers are preferably cross-linked, for example using ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) or divinyl benzene (DVB), and made macroporous by polymerisation in the presence of a porogen solvent such as dimethyl formamide (DMF). | 06-17-2010 |
