Abstract
Ochratoxin A has been determined in the sera of healthy volunteer blood donors and ill persons. The polyclonal antibody-based ELISA technique was used for screening. Ochratoxin-A could be detected in the sera of many healthy volunteer blood donors. The rate of the ochratoxin-positive sera was high (73.74 ) with about 20 difference between blood donors and ill persons. No correlation could be detected between the serum-level of Ochratoxin A and the different types of diseases. The testing of the monoclonal antibody-based ELISA technique (Toxiklon OA enzyme immunoassay kit Agricultural Biotechnology Center, Godollo, Hungary) and confirmation of the positive samples with HPLC are in progress.
