2 Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites produced by some moulds Most of mycoxtoxins have no odor and no taste Through whole human history mycotoxinswere present in food and feed
3 Mycotoxins were discovered only in the last century after the outbreak of Turkey X desease in UK in 1960 In different farms more than turkeys and ducklings died The only thing in common was peanut based feed contaminated by Aspergillus flavus
4 The discovered toxin was named aflatoxin Few years later the definition mycotoxins was assigned to the toxins produced by fungi Up to day about 400 fungal metabolites are considered mycotoxins Only a dozen of them of constant interest of scientist and authorities
5 Aflatoxins are among the most studied and controled mycotoxins WHY?
6 Aflatoxins has genotoxic and cytotoxic effects on human and animal cells They are teratogenic, cancerogenic and immnosuppressors Aflatoxins can be transmitted allong the food chain, unchanged or modified in more or less toxic compounds
7 Moulds produce 4 aflatoxins B 1, B 2, G 1, G 2 More than 70% of produced aflatoxins Aspergillus flavus Aspergillus parasiticus
8 When iradiated with UV light aflatoxins have fluorescence blue (B) or green (G)
9 In the same organism different tissues are differently affected by aflatoxins Detoxifications of animal cells from aflatoxins is operated by cytochrome P450 family In mammalians part of AFB1 is transformed in less toxic M1 secreted in milk. The carryover is up to 6%
10
11 In 70 s different authors have hypothesized possible influences of aflatoxins, and mycotoxins, on human history: - short life expectans of medieval man - pest epidemies - collective hysteria
12 Due to their toxicity the legislations of almost all the countries have limited the concentration of aflatoxins in food and feed commodities Almonds EU g kg -1 8 (B1) 12 (tot) USA g kg -1 China g kg (tot) 30 (tot) Animal feed 2 (B1) 20 (B1) 20 (B1) Milk 0.05 (M1) 0.5 (M1) 0.5 Infant formulae (M1) - - Spices 5 (B1) 10 (tot) 20 (tot) -
13 Contamination with aflatoxins is a worldwide problem Different commodities can be contaminated: cereal seeds, spices, dry fruits, meat products, cheese Aflatoxigenic moulds requires relatively low a w (>0.7) Contamination can occur in preharvest, in field, and postharvest period during any phase of transformation process or stocking
14 Producer (farmer) Aflatoxin control storage transformation Official control Feed storage milk Dairy cows
15 aflatoxins (g/kg) Oxidative stress is considered a prerequisite for aflatoxin biosynthesis Oily seeds, at same humidity, have higher a w and lipid oxidation triggers aflatoxin biosynthesis 0,9 0,8 0,7 0,6 0,5 0,4 0,3 0,2 0, days wheat mais peanuts sunflower
16 For contamination in field high temperatures and drought or insect attack are needed In Europe contamination with aflatoxins were considered more a problem of import or bad conservation Due to global climatic changes in some years aflatoxin contamination in field is a serious problem in some European countries
17 Aflatoxin control is needed worldwide 35 N 35 S Zone with perennial contamination risk Mehl H.L., CORN UTILIZATION & TECHNOLOGY CONFERENCE (CUTC), INDIANAPOLIS, 2012
18 2003 and 2012 were black years for aflatoxin contamination in Europe In 2013 Gafta (Grain and Feed Trade Association) has signalized reported high levels of aflatoxins in maize grains from: Spain, Italy, Serbia, Bulgaria, Romania, Croatia
19 % Aflatoxin B1 concentration over EU limits in Croatia wheat maize maize products other cereals
20 Average temperatures, humidity and rain ( and ) compared to year 2012
21 Role of aflatoxins still not clarified Gens are clustered, part of the signaling network that regulates expression of the cluster described Incompleate aflatoxin cluster has been found in non producing strains
22 No method for total prevention of their presence in food and feed has been achieved Control can be divided in: prevention detoxification adsorption
23 Prevention good agriculture practice (avoiding stress, quick postharvest drying) aflatoxigenix fungi need relatively low a w, in corn dried to 14% of moisture a w could be on the limit for fungal growth
24 use of fungicides Environmental problem Aflatoxins are response to a stress, especially oxidative stress g kg control treated Major growth of mould doesn t mean higher production of aflatoxins 50 0 growth (erg) ATOX
25 use of antioxidants and organic acids Aflatoxins produced on maize seeds treated and non with BHA 100 use of natural products (plant and fungal extracts) cont BHA 1 ppm days 10 days 15 days control BHA
26 Effect of extracts of different strains of Trametes versicolor, an edible mushroom, on aflatoxin synthesis by A. flavus

28 Biocontrol Use of non toxigenic strains as competitors Use of resistant maize cultivars Use of maize cultivars that stimulates less aflatoxin production (Burow et. al, 1997)

31 Decontamination removal of husks can significantly lowers the quantity of aflatoxins chemical treatments use of microbial enzymes
32 Isolates A. flavus inoculation on maize seeds (1 kg) At 10 dpi, 1 ppm of AFB1 is produced Toxin residual/ g maize kernels Most cultural filtrates (xylidine stimulated) degrade more than 90% of AFB1 on maize seeds after 72 hpi
33 Adsorption different hydrated sodium calcium aluminosilicates (HSCAS) used to adsorb aflatoxins in animals possible negative effects on adsorption of some nutrients new generation of adsorbants based on cell walls
34 Estimated food contamination in Europe Leblanc et al., and has estimated exposure to mycotoxins in French population Results were encouraging, aflatoxin exposure was lower than 1ng kg -1 day -1 The most important sources were cereals followed by eggs, milk,
35 Aflatoxins represent high health hazard for humans and animals No method for total prevention of their presence in food and feed has been achieved Nevertheless the presence of aflatoxins in food and feed in EU countries is under control
