Developments in mycotoxin analysis: an update for 2024-2025

 

This review summarises key developments in mycotoxin analysis reported between mid-2024 and mid-2025. It covers advances across the entire analytical workflow, including sampling, quality assurance/quality control, sample preparation, and detection technologies.

A major focus lies on chromatographic methods coupled to mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS and HRMS) for targeted and multi-mycotoxin determination, alongside emerging non-targeted and suspect-screening approaches. The review further addresses rapid screening tools such as biosensors and immunoassays, as well as spectroscopy-based and data-driven methods.

By highlighting methodological innovations, performance characteristics, and current limitations, the article provides a concise update for researchers, regulatory bodies, and analytical laboratories involved in mycotoxin monitoring.
