Rapid Postcolumn Methodology for Determination of Paralytic Shellfish Toxins in Shellfish Tissue [PDF]
Abstract A rapid liquid chromatographic (LC) method with postcolumn oxidation and fluorescence detection (excitation 330 nm, emission 390 nm) for the determination of paralytic shellfish toxins (PSTs) in shellfish tissue has been developed.
