  • Abstract:
    The objective of this study was to develop and validate a sensitive, fast and reliable HPLC method for determination of deoxynivalenol (DON) in wheat flour. The calibration curve demonstrated good linearity in the concentration range of 25–2500 µg/kg. The accuracy of the determination of DON exhibited a mean recovery rate of 104.3%. Consequently, the limits of detection and quantification were 14.55 µg/kg and 44.09 µg/kg, respectively.
