This European Standard specifies a method for the determination of patulin in fruit juices and fruit-based purée, such as baby food purée, using high performance liquid chromatography with ultra-violet detection (HPLC-UV). Using naturally contaminated and spiked samples this method has been validated for the determination of patulin in apple juice, at levels ranging from 3,0 μg/kg to 15,5 μg/kg, and in fruit-based baby food purée, at levels ranging from 3,4 μg/kg to 17,9 μg/kg. Baby food fruit purée used in this study contained a mixture of the following ingredients which are commercially available on the European market: blueberry; apple; banana; lemon; wheat biscuits; wheat syrup; whole milk; and vegetable oil. A detailed listing, including the fractions, of each product used in this study is given in. Further information on validation, see Clause 9 and Annex B.

This European Standard specifies a method for the determination of deoxynivalenol (DON) in cereals (grain and flour), cereal based foods and cereal based foods for infants and young children by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with immunoaffinity cleanup and UV detection. This method has been validated in three interlaboratory studies. The first study was for the analysis of samples of wheat, rice flour, oat flour, maize, polenta, and wheat based breakfast cereal ranging from 85,4 μg/kg to 1 768 μg/kg, the second study was for wheat and maize ranging from 165 μg/kg to 4 700 μg/kg and the third study was for cereal based foods for infants and young children ranging from 58 μg/kg to 452 μg/kg. For further information on the validation, see Clause 9 and Annex B.
