2. Transfer to the animal and human food chain
2.1 Examples of contamination of the food chain
Mycotoxins enter the human food chain generally from cereals, oilseeds, nuts, fruit... Molds are often only visible at this stage. Once a mycotoxin has been produced, its high chemical stability means that it is transferred to by-products right up to the finished product (e.g. wheat flour, then bread for DON). At the same time, mycotoxins can contaminate feedstuffs. Depending on their fate in the animal (bio-accumulation, metabolism), mycotoxins or one of their...
