Mycotoxin contamination of feed and materials represent a serious health hazard. This study details the occurrence aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), zearalenone (ZEN) ochratoxin A (OTA) in 826 617 material samples, collected two Italian Regions (Umbria Marche) from 2018 to 2022 analyzed using UPLC-FLD platform. The developed method was validated accredited (ISO/IEC 17025) with satisfactory accuracy precision data obtained repeatability intralaboratory reproducibility conditions. Feed had higher incidence...
Alternaria toxins (ATs) are a group of produced by fungi that frequently contaminate tomatoes and tomato products. Recently, the European Food Safety Authority evaluated ATs for their genotoxic carcinogenic properties. infestation is often controlled using ad hoc treatment strategies (fungicides). In this study, two analytical methods were developed, validated applied determination five 195 pesticides in products collected from Italian market. Two distinct groups, organic (n = 20)...
The detection and quantification of polar pesticides in liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry present significant analytical challenges. This study compares the performance three LC columns (Hypercarb™, Raptor Polar X™, Anionic Pesticide™) separating quantifying eleven chicken eggs using a score-based methodology. Analytes include glyphosate, its metabolites, other high-polarity like Ethephon, Glufosinate, Fosetyl aluminum, included EU’s official control plan. pesticides,...
