Climate change and variability may have an impact on the occurrence of food safety hazards
at various stages of the food chain, from primary production through to consumption. There …

Grains (cereals and legumes) contribute significantly to in achieving food and nutritional
security. However, these commodities are susceptible to fungal contamination …

Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is a promising analytical tool, but
simultaneous detection of multiple targets using SERS remains a challenge. Herein, a …

This paper reviews the challenges relating to chronic contamination of small grains and
maize with deoxynivalenol and related compounds, fumonisin and the use of ensiled …

Mold metabolites that can elicit deleterious effects on other organisms are classified as
mycotoxins. Human exposure to mycotoxins occurs mostly through the intake of …

Although forecasting Fusarium infections have useful implications, it may be argued that
forecasting Fusarium toxins is more useful to help reduce their entry into the food chain …

BACKGROUND: Three matrices—corn (maize) meal, distiller's dried grains with solubles
(DDGS) and condensed distiller's solubles (CDS)—were sampled in sequence from a …

This study aimed to investigate mycotoxin contamination of cereal grain commodities for
feed and food production in North Western Europe during the last two decades, including …

Contamination of maize with fumonisins depends on the environmental conditions; the
maize resistance to contamination and the interaction between both factors. Although the …

The occurrence of mycotoxins associated with Fusarium spp. and Aspergillus flavus in
Northern Italy, and the role of crop** systems, were investigated on 140 field samples …
