The determination of mycotoxin and metabolite concentrations in human and animal urine is
currently used for risk assessment and mycotoxin intake measurement. In this study, pig …

Biomarker-based methods are being more and more used to assess dietary exposure of
mycotoxins in a population. The aim of the present study was to perform an extended …

The multi-biomarker approach was used to validate urinary biomarkers in piglets
administered boluses contaminated with mixtures of deoxynivalenol (DON), aflatoxin B1 …

Farm animals are frequently exposed to mycotoxins, which have many adverse effects on
their health and become a significant food safety issue. Pigs are highly exposed and …

Mycotoxin producing moulds may contaminate numerous agricultural commodities either
before harvest or during storage. A varied diet consisting of different foods may therefore be …

Direct determination of urinary mycotoxins is a better approach to assess individual's
exposure than the indirect estimation from average dietary intakes. In this study, a new …

Food-producing animals are exposed to mycotoxins through ingestion, inhalation, or dermal
contact with contaminated materials. This exposure can lead to serious consequences for …

Mycotoxins contaminating animal feed can exert toxic effects in animals and be transferred
into animal products. Therefore, mycotoxin occurrence in feed should be monitored. To this …

Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites produced by fungi especially those belonging to the
genus Aspergillus, Penicillum and Fusarium. Mycotoxin contamination can occur in all …

The aim of this study was to investigate the contamination of pig feed with moulds and the
occurrence of mycotoxins. A total of 30 feed samples were collected at different animal feed …
