Survey of mycotoxins in dates and dried fruits from Tunisian and Spanish markets

2015

Abstract In an effort to enforce the knowledge on mycotoxin occurrence and co-occurrence in dates and dried fruits, 228 samples purchased from Tunisian and Spanish markets were subjected to multi-mycotoxin liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis of 16 mycotoxins. At least one mycotoxin was detected in 160 samples (70%). The frequency of contaminated samples was 83%, 80%, 64%, 59% and 26% for dates, dried vine fruits, figs, apricots and plums, respectively but none of the analyzed samples contained detectable levels of fumonisins (FB1, FB2, FB3) or T-2 toxin (T2). The incidence and levels of mycotoxins varied in samples. The most prevalent mycotoxin was enniat…

Occurrence of mycotoxins in refrigerated pizza dough and risk assessment of exposure for the Spanish population.

2016

Mycotoxins are toxic metabolites produced by filamentous fungi, as Aspergillus, Penicillium and Fusarium. The first objective of this research was to study the presence of mycotoxins in 60 samples of refrigerated pizza dough, by extraction with methanol and determination by liquid chromatography associated with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Then, the estimated dietary intakes (EDIs) of these mycotoxins, among the Spanish population, was calculated and the health risk assessment was performed, comparing the EDIs data with the tolerable daily intake values (TDIs). The mycotoxins detected in the analyzed samples were aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), aflatoxin B2 (AFB2), aflatoxin G1 (AFG1), zearale…

Los hongos de Fusarium pueden producir micotoxinas hexadepsipeptidicas, como beauvericina (BEA) y eniatinas (ENs) e isoprenoides como la fusaproliferina (FUS), las cuales se encuentran de forma natural en los alimentos y piensos. En las últimas décadas se han publicado datos, aunque escasos, sobre su toxicidad potencial en humanos y animales. Los objectivos de esta tesis fueron evaluar: los efectos citotóxicos de las FUS, BEA y ENs A, A1, B y B1 en células Caco-2, CHO-K1 y HT-29; los efectos citotóxicos de las ENs combinadas, la generación de especies reactivas de oxígeno (ROS) y la producción de peroxidación lipídica (LPO) tras exposición a FUS, BEA y ENs en las células Caco-2; la citoprot…
