“…Low-temperature plasma treatment of pure mycotoxin standards leads to the degradation of DON and D3G by 96% (DON) or of 70% (D3G) after 4 minutes, respectively (see Figure 4). These results have been confirmed by other authors (Park et al, 2007;Bosch et al, 2017). Different degradation times are likely affected by the type of plasma used.…”

This work deals with the possibility of elimination of common occuring mycotoxins deoxynivalenol (DON) and its plant metabolite deoxynivalenol-3-glucoside (D3G) from malting barley and malt by treatment of low-temperature plasma discharge. Barley seed was treated with a fungicide, entomopathogenic and mycoparasitic fungi and the low-temperature plasma discharge of Gliding Arc type, or their combination. Samples of harvested barley were treated with plasma discharge and analyzed for presence of mycotoxins. Only low DON and D3G concentration levels were detected (maximal values were 48.2 µg/kg and 30.2 µg/kg for DON and D3G, resp.), after plasma treatment mycotoxin content decreased onto the levels near limit of quantification. The results suggest that low-temperature Gliding Arc plasma discharge may contribute to reduction of the content of the mycotoxins in harvested barley grains.

“…Ten Bosch et al. () used atmospheric DBD cold plasma to degrade deoxynivalenol, zearalenone, enniatins, fumonisin B1, and T2 toxin produced by Fusarium spp., sterigmatocystin produced by Aspergillus spp. and AAL toxin produced by Alternaria alternata .…”

“…Additionally, a reduction in aflatoxins B1 production by 70% and 90% was reported for plasma exposure at 40 W for 15 min and 60 W for 12 min, respectively. Ten Bosch et al (2017) used atmospheric DBD cold plasma to degrade deoxynivalenol, zearalenone, enniatins, fumonisin B1, and T2 toxin produced by Fusarium spp., sterigmatocystin produced by Aspergillus spp. and AAL toxin produced by Alternaria alternata.…”

“…This is most likely because the reactive species in plasma could be scavenged by the different components in the matrix. No stable residues of mycotoxins were observed with HPLC-MS after cold plasma treatment, which was suggested to be due to the conversion of mycotoxins to volatile compounds (Ten Bosch et al 2017). In a recent study, Shi, Ileleji, Stroshine, Keener, and Jensen (2017) studied the degradation of aflatoxin in corn kernels using a high-voltage DBD plasma operating in air and modified atmospheres.…”

Cold plasma treatment is a promising intervention in food processing to boost product safety and extend the shelf‐life. The activated chemical species of cold plasma can act rapidly against micro‐organisms at ambient temperatures without leaving any known chemical residues. This review presents an overview of the action of cold plasma against molds and mycotoxins, the underlying mechanisms, and applications for ensuring food safety and quality. The cold plasma species act on multiple sites of a fungal cell resulting in loss of function and structure, and ultimately cell death. Likewise, the species cause chemical breakdown of mycotoxins through various pathways resulting in degradation products that are known to be less toxic. We argue that the preliminary reports from cold plasma research point at good potential of plasma for shelf‐life extension and quality retention of foods. Some of the notable food sectors which could benefit from antimycotic and antimycotoxin efficacy of cold plasma include, the fresh produce, food grains, nuts, spices, herbs, dried meat and fish industries.

Mycotoxins - Impact and Management Strategies

The contamination of foods and feeds by mycotoxins is significant problem worldwide that pose serious health hazardous effects in humans and animals. Risk arises from the fact that fungal species grow naturally in food and are difficult to eliminate. The presence of multiple mycotoxins (co-occurrence) in food products increases day by day and their natural co-occurrence is an increasing health concern due to the exposure of multiple fungal growth, which might exert greater toxicity than exposure of single mycotoxins. The presence of mycotoxins in food and feed are associated with health and reproductive issues, lower performance, and higher medical costs. Survey on co-occurrence of mycotoxins indicated that over 50% contaminated samples contained more than one mycotoxins and Asia faces a heightened risk of mycotoxins overall. There is a lack of information regarding co-occurrence of mycotoxins in food and animal feed. Face to this situation, the current chapter will be very informative to explore the incidence of multiple mycotoxins, their co-occurrence and the detoxification of mycotoxins using different techniques.
