Zusammenfassung:A commercially available enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) system and a high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method were used simultaneously to analyze 178 samples of foodstuffs for total aflatoxins. High correlation coefficient values between results of the two methodologies were obtained (>0.96) with nuts, nut products, peanuts, and peanut butter. However, poor correlation was obtained from results of cereals and grain samples. The ELISA system demonstrated a high degree of reproducibility between wells (p
