ABSTRACT:
Erroneous-positive results free method for the detection of moulds in foodstuffs and in human and animal body fluids with the aid of an immunological determination of the extracellular polysaccharide (EPS) produced by the mould; this method is characterized in that (a) an immunological determination of the EPS produced by the mould is carried out and, in the case of a positive result, subsequently (b) an immunological determination is carried out in the presence of a synthetically prepared epitope of the EPS investigated and the EPS investigated itself.
