Deoxynivalenol in wheat and wheat products from a harvest affected by fusarium head blight

Abstract: Fusarium head blight is an important disease occurring in wheat, caused mainly by the fungus Fusarium graminearum. In addition to direct damage to crops, reduced quality and yield losses, the infected grains can accumulate mycotoxins (toxic metabolites originating from prior fungal growth), especially deoxynivalenol (DDN). Wheat crops harvested in 2014/2015 in southern Brazil were affected by high levels of Fusarium head blight. In this context, the aim of this study was evaluate the mycotoxicological quality … Show more

“…The main mycotoxins such as are aflatoxins, deoxynivalenol, trichothecenes, fumonisins, zearalenone, and ochratoxin A are produced by Aspergillus, Penicillium, Alternaria, Claviceps and Fusarium species (Udovicki et al, 2018). Among them, deoxynivalenol (DON), also called vomitoxin (type B trichothecene), is one of the most common mycotoxins associated with cereals such as corn, wheat, and barley (Machado et al, 2017;Medina et al, 2019). DON is mainly produced by Fusarium species such as F. graminearum and F. culmorum.…”

“…Deoxynivalenol (DON), one of the most frequently detected mycotoxins mainly produced by Fusarium species, has attracted extensive attention due to its harmful influence on humans and animals [ 1 ]. DON can not only inhibit the synthesis of proteins and DNA and induce immuno-suppression, but can also result in gastroenteritis, vomiting, diarrhea, and even death [ 1 , 2 , 3 ]. Moreover, the heat resistance and water solubility of DON allow it to enter food chains and cause acute or chronic poisoning [ 4 , 5 ].…”

“…Therefore, healthy and stable wheat growth is important in regard to food security. Fusarium head blight (FHB) is one of the main wheat diseases, which can cause the deterioration of quality and a serious loss of yield [2,3]. Moreover, the pathogen produces toxic deoxynivalenol (DON), which is detrimental to animal and human health [4].…”
