摘要:
Twenty samples of maize collected from healthy growing crops and at harvest time and during storage were screened for fourFusariumtoxins (deoxynivalenol, diacetoxyscirpenol, T‐2 toxin and zearalenone) by gas chromatography‐mass spectrometry and thin‐layer chromatography. Seventeen samples (85%) contained one or more of these toxins. Zearalenone was present in 15 samples at levels ranging between 0.1 and 16 ppm. Deoxynivalenol, diacetoxyscirpenol and T‐2 toxin were found in 11, 6 and 13 samples respectively, all at levels below 1 ppm. This work documents the first reported natural occurrence ofFusariumtoxins in New Zealand maize, and it is concluded that all four of the mycotoxins studied are prevalent in apparently healthy standing crops as well as in stored maize.
