Cereals and cereal-based products are easily polluted by mycotoxins in all aspects of production, storage and transportation, and mycotoxins are difficult to prevent due to their variety, low concentration, strong toxicity andlarge difference in nature. This paper summarizes the new development of the pretreatment technologies （liquid-liquid extraction, solid-phase extraction, QuEChERS, immunoaffinity chromatography） and detection technologies （immunochromatography technology, optical spectrum technology, liquid chromatography and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry） of mycotoxins in cereals and products. The development trend of mycotoxin detection technologies was also prospected.
