Abstract
A survey for the natural occurrence of Fusarium mycotoxins, deoxynivalenol (DON), nivalenol (NIV) and zearalenone (ZEN), in Dutch cereals (totaling 29 samples) harvested in 1984/1985, showed that 90%, 79% and 62% of samples were contaminated with DON, NIV and ZEN, respectively. Average contents (ng/g) in the total of positive samples were 221 (DON), 123 (NIV) and 61 (ZEN). Among the cereals examined, the highest concentrations (ng/g) was 3198 (DON), 1875 (NIV) and 677 (ZEN) in a yellow corn sample for animal feed. The results of this survey show that Dutch cereals were relatively significantly contaminated with Fusarium mycotoxins.Keywords
