Stored Grain - Mycotoxins
Mycotoxins are toxic fungal metabolites that cause intoxication when consumed by animals, including humans. Fungi that produce mycotoxins are called toxigenic fungi. The toxigenic fungi do not produce mycotoxins after they have been ingested by animals and humans. Toxigenic fungi grow in corn, cereals, soybeans, sorghum, peanuts, silage and other food, feed crops or hay in the field, and in gra...
متن کاملMycotoxins as a Risk in the Grain Food
Mycotoxins are toxic secondary metabolites of fungi that contaminate a large variety of foods and have toxic effects on humans. The best protection against mycotoxins is to monitor their presence in food. This paper shows the screening results of mycotoxins present in 76 samples of different groups of grain foods. Samples of grain food were analyzed for contamination with aflatoxins, ochratoxin...
متن کاملMould contamination and co-occurrence of mycotoxins in maize grain in Croatia.
Maize grain samples (n=15) collected during the autumn of 2002 were analyzed for the presence of moulds and mycotoxins fumonisin B1 (FB1), fumonisin B2 (FB2), zearalenone (ZEA), and ochratoxin A (OTA). Mycological analysis showed that all samples were contaminated with Fusarium spp. and Penicillium spp., while Aspergillus spp. were found in 5 samples. F. proliferatum and F. verticilloides, the ...
متن کاملOccurrence of 26 Mycotoxins in the Grain of Cereals Cultivated in Poland
The levels of 26 mycotoxins were determined in 147 samples of the grain of cereals cultivated in five regions of Poland during the 2014 growing season. The HPLC-HRMS (time-of-flight) analytical technique was used. An analytical procedure to simultaneously determine 26 mycotoxins in grain was developed, tested and verified. Samples from eastern and southern Poland were more contaminated with myc...
متن کاملEffect of Environmental Factors on Fusarium Species and Associated Mycotoxins in Maize Grain Grown in Poland
Maize is one of the most important crops and Poland is the fifth largest producing country in Europe. Diseases caused by Fusarium spp. can affect the yield and grain quality of maize because of contamination with numerous mycotoxins produced by these fungi. The present study was performed to identify the prevailing Fusarium species and the environmental factors affecting their frequencies and t...
