Determination of mycotoxin exposure in Germany using an LC-MS/MS multibiomarker approach.
In this study, the exposure of a German population (n = 101) to mycotoxins was assessed using an LC-MS/MS urinary multibiomarker approach. Food consumption of the participants was documented with a food frequency questionnaire to correlate mycotoxin exposure with individual nutritional habits.. The presence of 23 urinary biomarkers including trichothecenes (deoxynivalenol (DON), DON-3-glucuronide (DON-3-GlcA), T-2 toxin, HT-2 toxin (HT-2, HT-2-toxin-4-glucuronide (HT-2-GlcA), fumonisins (fumonisin B1, fumonisin B2), aflatoxins (aflatoxin B1, aflatoxin G2, aflatoxin B2, aflatoxin M1), zearalenone and derivatives (zearalanone, α-zearalenol, β-zearalenol, zearalenone-14-O-glucuronide, zearalanone-14-O-glucuronide, α-zearalenol-14-O-glucuronide/β-zearalenol-14-O-glucuronide), ochratoxin A, ochratoxin alpha, enniatin B and dihydrocitrinone was evaluated using a validated, sensitive "dilute and shoot"-LC-MS/MS method applying Scheduled MRM(TM) technology. Six mycotoxins and urinary metabolites were detected (DON, DON-3-GlcA, zearalenone-14-O-glucuronide, T-2 toxin, enniatin B, and dihydrocitrinone) in 87% of the samples in single- or co-occurence. Only DON and DON-3-GlcA were detectable in quantifiable amounts. A provisional mean daily intake of 0.52 μg DON/kg body weight was calculated. No statistical evidence for the correlation of staple food intake and urinary biomarker concentration could be determined.. The results of this study suggest a low everyday exposure of the investigated German population to mycotoxins, but reveal peak exposures above the widely accepted tolerable daily intake to DON in parts of the population.

Co-occurrence of aflatoxins B₁, B₂, G₁ and G₂, ochratoxin A, zearalenone, deoxynivalenol, and citreoviridin in rice in Brazil.
A total of 230 samples of processed rice and its sub-products or derived products were analysed to establish the co-occurrence of several mycotoxins. Samples were analysed in the period 2007-2009 due to the outbreak of beriberi associated with the consumption of rice stored in inappropriate conditions in Brazil. According to data from the Ministry of Health, 323 cases of disease were registered in 2006, of which at least 47 cases resulted in death. The occurrence of total aflatoxin (AFT) (aflatoxin B(1) + B(2) + G(1) + G(2)), ochratoxin A (OTA), zearalenone (ZON), deoxynivalenol (DON), and citreoviridin (CTV) was 58.7%, 40.0%, 45.2%, 8.3% and 22.5%, respectively. From 166 rice samples analysed, 55% had levels <0.11 µg kg(-1) for AFT. For OTA and ZON, of 165 rice samples analysed, 28% and 29% were contaminated with levels from 0.20 to 0.24 µg kg(-1) and from 3.6 to 290.0 µg kg(-1), respectively. One sample (0.6%) was contaminated with 4872.0 µg kg(-1) of ZON. A total of 91% of rice samples (n = 165) did not contain detectable DON (<30.00 µg kg(-1)), although the highest level of contamination was found to be 244 µg kg(-1). From the total of 65 samples analysed, 94% had no detectable CTV (<0.9 µg kg(-1)), with a range from 0.9 to 31.1 µg kg(-1) in 6% of the samples. The highest levels of contamination were found in rice sub-products or derived products from the husk and rice bran. Co-occurrence was observed for AFT and ZON in 17.0%, AFT and OTA in 24.2%, AFT and CTV in 6.2%, OTA and CTV in 4.6%, and ZON and CTV in 3.1%. These fractions were also the major contributors for the co-occurrence. The results found show the necessity of monitoring rice production.
