Mycotoxin mixtures in food and feed: a holistic, innovative, flexible modelling...
Battilani, Paola; DallAsta, Chiara; Brera, Carlo; Campbell, K.; Crisci, A.; De Santis, Barbara; Gkrillas, A.; Gonçalves, Ana Paula Monteiro; Oswald, I.Mycotoxin contamination can occur in many agricultural products both destined to food and feed. Mycotoxins are produced as the result of fungal metabolism and plant-pathogen interaction. Therefore, many structurally-related congeners, defined as modified mycotoxins are generated by plant &/or fungi metabolism, or food processing, and coexist with their native forms. Studies investigating the co-occurrence of mu...
Pre- and postharvest strategies to minimize mycotoxin contamination in the rice...
Gonçalves, Ana; Gkrillas, A.; Dorne, J. L.; Dall'Asta, C.; Palumbo, R.; Lima, Nelson; Battilani, P.; Venâncio, Armando; Giorni, P.Rice is part of many people's diet around the world, being the main energy source in some regions. Although fewer reports exist on the occurrence of mycotoxins in rice compared to other cereals, fungal contamination and the associated production of toxic metabolites, even at lower occurrence levels compared to other crops, are of concern because of the high consumption of rice in many countries. Due to the dive...
