Tests for mycotoxins may be required if harvesting conditions or clinical signs are indicative of possible mycotoxin contamination. Regular tannin analyses are advised in countries that use high-tannin sorghums. 

Figure 8.8 Chromatograms of procyanidins extracted from cranberries (A) and Hi-tannin sorghum (B). Excitation and emission wavelength were 210 nm and 321 nm using fluorescent detector. Sample was run on a Develosil Diol 100 A column (250 x 4.6 mm, 5 pm particle size) using gradient in Table 8.3. Numbers above the peak denote the DP values of procyanidins in the peaks.
