The different amounts of DNA used were over the calibration curve limits.
*Values were obtained by interpolation, but less of 200 ng of genomic maize or soy DNA was used to be within the curve limits.
#The amount of maize or soybean DNA obtained after the food sample extraction was lower than 200 ng therefore 0.05% sensitivity was not reached.
