Abstract BACKGROUND Maize is frequently contaminated with deoxynivalenol (DON) and fumonisins B 1 (FB ) 2 ). In the European Union, these mycotoxins are regulated in maize maize‐derived products. To comply regulations, industries require a fast, economic, safe, non‐destructive environmentally friendly analysis method. RESULTS present study, near‐infrared hyperspectral imaging (NIR‐HSI) was used to develop regression classification models for DON, FB kernels. The best presented following root...
Agronomic factors can affect mycotoxin contamination of maize, one the most produced cereals. Maize is usually harvested at 18% moisture, but it not microbiologically stable until reaches 14% moisture drying plants. We studied how three agronomic (crop diversification, tillage system and nitrogen fertilization rate) fungal (deoxynivalenol fumonisins B1 B2) in maize harvest. In addition, changes during a simulated harvest-till-drying period were studied. DON content harvest was higher for...
Deoxynivalenol (DON) is a mycotoxin mainly produced by Fusarium graminearum and culmorum commonly found in cereals such as wheat, barley, oats, their derivatives. Scientists have been working on different strategies for DON detoxification, with biological detoxification being an approach growing interest. When evaluating the use of microorganisms phenomena can occur, namely, biotransformation (by microorganism metabolism interaction extracellular cell proteins) adsorption walls, both which...
