Validation results for linearity shown as the mean ± standard deviation of three curves across three different days of analysis (linear range, correlation coefficient (r) and goodness-of-fit coefficient (g)) and limit of quantification (LOQ) of 23 mycotoxins in dried blood spots of dried blood spots of pig whole blood extracted from an 8 mm disk.
