International training course: 'Rapid methods for mycotoxin detection in the food chain'

The Institute of sciences of food production – National research council of Italy (Ispa-Cnr), under the aegis of the MycokeyY project (http://www.mycokey.eu/) and the International society for mycotoxicology (Ism), is hosting a one-week workshop-training course from October 9-13, 2017. The course will give information about major issues associated with mycotoxin analysis and contamination along the food chain. Lectures and laboratory training will be provided on routinely used and new screening tools for rapid, robust and user-friendly analysis of mycotoxins, including validation aspects.

Practical training in the laboratory will cover most of the course and trainees will be assisted individually in the laboratory by Ispa-Cnr staff expert in instrumental and immunochemical analysis of mycotoxins.
