“…An exception was the year 2014 and, to some extent, the year 2010. The results obtained by Kos et al [80] and Jajic et al [81,82] indicated that weather conditions recorded in 2014 and 2010, in terms of air temperature and the amount of precipitation, had a significant influence on DON occurrence. Samples analysed in 2014 showed a DON prevalence of 96.2% ( n = 640), with 45.6% of the samples exceeding the EU MRL (Table 3), while samples analysed in 2010 showed a DON prevalence of 73.5% ( n = 310), with 6.8% of the samples exceeding the EU MRL (Table 3).…”

With an average annual production of 6.9 M tonnes and 2.5 M tonnes of maize and wheat respectively, Serbia is one of the main grain producers and exporters in Europe. Cereals are also the major staple food in Serbian diet. In view of the high cereal consumption, for human and animal nutrition, the presence of mycotoxins entails a high public health risk of chronic exposure to mycotoxins. This study provides an overview of the incidence of predominant mycotoxins, mainly in cereal and dairy products, in Serbia, in the 2004–2016, using data reported in the scientific literature. The study demonstrated that the total prevalence of aflatoxins was 62.9% (n = 12,517) with 26.2% of the samples exceeding the EU limits during this period. Results obtained for T-2/HT-2 (n = 523), deoxynivalenol (n = 2907), fumonisins (n = 998), zearalenone (n = 689) and ochratoxin A (n = 740) indicated the prevalence of 45.5%, 42.9%, 63.3%, 39.3% and 28.1%, respectively. For these mycotoxins, the EU limits were less frequently exceeded. Comprehensive collection and analysis of all accessible information reviewed in this paper showed moderate incidence and prevalence of mycotoxins in Serbia, with an exception of the 2012 drought year and the 2014 flood year.

“…In addition, one of the rainiest maize growing seasons (2014) in recent years resulted in contaminating 576 (96.0 %) out of 600 maize samples with a mean DON concentration of 3063.3±1264.4 µg/kg. Almost 50 % of the maize samples from 2014 were unsuitable for human consumption (Kos et al, 2017), whereas the obtained concentrations of DON in all the positive samples from 2016 were lower than the ML. The present study confirmed that the appearance of DON in maize is mainly facilitated by abundant precipitation.…”

“…Previous European studies on the contamination of maize with mycotoxins indicate that the absence or presence of certain mycotoxins depend on many factors such as weather conditions throughout the maize growing season (Pleadin et al, 2012;Kos et al, 2014;Streit et al, 2013;Kos et al, 2017). Therefore, the purpose of this study is to examine the maize samples (harvested in the Autonomous Province of Vojvodina (APV) in 2016) contaminated with AFs, ZEA, DON and FUMs in relation to weather conditions recorded during the maize growing season.…”

“…The authors found no samples containing DON, while some other Fusarium toxins occurred. More recently, Kos et al (2017) presented the results of a three-year DON monitoring in Serbian maize. The authors analyzed a highly representative number of samples (1,800) and came up with conclusions that amount of precipitation represented a climatic factor with the strongest influence on the DON occurrence in maize.…”

The aim of this paper was to investigate deoxynivalenol (DON) occurrence in maize samples originating from two harvest seasons in Serbia. The key differences between harvest seasons were weather conditions, specifically the humidity. The samples were analyzed using high performance liquid chromatography with DAD detection, after clean-up on SPE columns. In samples from 2014, DON was found in 82 (100.0%) samples with the average content of 2.517 mg/kg (ranged from 0.368 to 11.343 mg/kg). Two samples exceeded maximum level permitted by EU regulations. However, analyzing larger number of samples (163) from 2015 harvest season, DON was present in 51 (31.3%) samples in significantly lower concentrations (average of 0.662 mg/kg, ranged from 0.106 to 2.628 mg/kg). None of the samples from 2015 exceeded maximum level permitted by EU regulations. The data on DON presence in Serbian maize were in relation to the different weather conditions that prevailed during the two harvest seasons.
