The paper describes a modification of the method of Stoloff et al. allowing a simultaneous measurement of eight mycotoxins (aflatoxins B1, B2, G1, G2, ochratoxin A, sterigmatocystin, citrinin, patulin) in the grain extract on standard plates Silufol. The method proved 4-5 times more sensitive than the use of silica gel G and Adrosbosil I. An additional purification of the extract with lead acetate and celit can be recommended. The yield of mycotoxins varied within 76-127%. The paper discusses peculiar features of chromatographic procedures due to Silufol.
