“…In our study, we found a high prevalence of DON in cereals (53%) and maize (94% of samples). Compared to our study, Kosicki et al (2016) reported a higher prevalence of DON in cereal grain samples (98%) and a similar prevalence in maize (89%). In a Croatian study by Pleadin et al (2012), the DON prevalence in feed for fattening pigs was 96.6% with a mean concentration of 817 ± 447 μg/kg (max.…”

“…We found a similar contamination of cereals (3%) and maize (5%) with AF as that found in a Polish study. Kosicki et al (2016) reported that 5% of examined samples were contaminated with AF. In a study performed in Croatia, Pleadin et al (2012) found a 13.3% prevalence of AFB 1 in feed for fattening pigs with a mean concentration of 1.10 ± 0.51 μg/kg (max.…”

Multiannual occurrence of mycotoxins in feed ingredients and complete feeds for pigs in the Czech Republic

The aim of the study was to evaluate the individual and combined occurrence of mycotoxins in feed ingredients and complete feeds for pigs in the Czech Republic in the years 2013–2017. The samples were analysed for the occurrence of aflatoxins (AF), deoxynivalenol (DON), zearalenone (ZEA), ochratoxin A (OTA), fumonisins (FUM), and T-2/H-2 toxins. The mycotoxin most commonly found in maize and small cereal grain samples was deoxynivalenol (94% and 53%, respectively). Deoxynivalenol was also the most frequent mycotoxin in all types of swine feed. The most frequent mycotoxin combinations in the total number of samples were DON + ZEA (56.63%), DON + OTA (11.61%) and DON + sum of T2/HT2 (9.76%). The maximum values set by the European Commission for mycotoxin levels in feed ingredients and complete feeds were exceeded in the case of AFB1, deoxynivalenol, zearalenone, ochratoxin A and T-2/H-2 toxins. Our findings support the need for further monitoring of mycotoxins in feed ingredients and complete feeds for pigs in the Czech Republic.

Mycotoxins feed contamination in a dairy farm – potential implications for milk contamination and workers' exposure in a One Health approach

et al. 2019

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

BACKGROUND: Dairy farming feed can be contaminated with mycotoxins, affecting animals' health and milk quality. Dairy farming is also prone to occupational exposure to mycotoxins, and feed is recognized as a source of contamination in the workplace. An exploratory study was developed in a dairy farm located in Portugal intending to assess the mycotoxins present in the feed. RESULTS: All the samples analyzed presented contamination by at least two mycotoxins and up to a maximum of 13 mycotoxins in the same sample. Zearalenone (ZEA) was detected in all the samples (n = 10) followed by deoxynivalenol (DON), which was reported in eight samples, and ochratoxin A (OTA), reported in five samples.CONCLUSION: The results point to the possible contamination of milk by several mycotoxins and raise the possibility of occupational exposure to mycotoxins due to feed contamination. An adequate One Health approach for dairy production should address these issues through effective preventive actions such as avoiding the use of feed contaminated with mycotoxins. This represents an important challenge due to climate change. It requires proper attention and accurate management measures.

Mycotoxins are a wide group of compounds that often occur in food and feeds. These toxins negatively affect living organisms and may pose a risk for consumers’ health. Fish seem to be a particularly vulnerable group because negative effects can be observed at low levels of contamination, much lower than those considered harmful for other farmed animals. Mycotoxins may disturb cellular homeostasis by their influence on cells’ metabolism, causing DNA damage and organ lesions. Moreover, they are capable of immunomodulation, which may increase the occurrence of fish diseases caused by bacteria and other pathogens. Furthermore, these substances often have a negative impact on the growth rate of fish, which may cause economic losses to farmers. Although mycotoxins are commonly found in feeds, their ability to bioaccumulate in fish seems to be marginal. Therefore, according to the available data, fish may not be considered as the main source of mycotoxins for humans. Since there are no legal limits on the amount of mycotoxins present in fish feeds, it is necessary to constantly monitor the levels of mycotoxins in fish feeds and to investigate the influence of these substances on fish health..
