"Experiment Station of the Hawaiian Sugar Planters Association" represents a significant body of scientific and agricultural research focused on the optimization of sugar cane production in Hawaii. As the first volume in a series of technical publications, this work documents the findings of the Department of Pathology during a transformative era for the sugar industry. The text provides detailed investigations into the plant diseases, soil requirements, and biological challenges that affected tropical crop yields in the early 20th century.

The reports contained within offer a meticulous look at the application of pathology and botany to large-scale commercial farming. By addressing the specific ecological conditions of the Hawaiian Islands, these studies illustrate the intersection of industrial needs and scientific inquiry. This volume is an essential reference for those interested in the history of agriculture, the development of plant pathology, and the economic history of the Pacific. It serves as a vital record of the systematic efforts to protect and enhance one of Hawaii's most historically significant industries through rigorous scientific methodology.

Determining Mycotoxins and Mycotoxigenic Fungi in Food and Feed
Mycotoxins - toxic secondary metabolites produced by mycotoxigenic fungi - pose a significant risk to the food chain. Indeed, they may be the most hazardous of all food contaminants in terms of chronic toxicity and legislative limits on their levels in food and feed continue to be developed worldwide. Rapid and reliable methods for the determination of both mycotoxigenic fungi and mycotoxins in food and feed are therefore essential. This book reviews current and emerging methods in this area. <p/>Part one focuses on the essentials of mycotoxin determination, covering sampling, sample preparation and clean-up and key determination techniques, such as chromatographic separation, liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry and immunochemical methods. Part two then goes on to describe quality assurance, official methods and performance criteria for determining mycotoxins in food and feed. Topics covered include laboratory accreditation, method validation and measurement uncertainty. The development and analysis of biomarkers for mycotoxins are discussed in part three. Individual chapters focus on detecting exposure in humans and animals. Part four is concerned with the processes involved in determining mycotoxigenic fungi in food and feed. It also describes the identification of genes and gene clusters involved in mycotoxin synthesis, as well as DNA barcoding of toxigenic fungi. Finally, part five explores some of the emerging methods for mycotoxin analysis, ranging from bio-sensing to spectroscopic techniques. <p/>With its distinguished editor and international team of contributors, Determining mycotoxins and mycotoxigenic fungi in food and feed is a standard reference for all those concerned with reducing mycotoxin contamination in the food chain.
