Synopsis (short abstract) La présence de mycotoxines dans les céréales et autres produits alimentaires de base a des conséquences graves sur la santé humaine et animale. Plusieurs pays ont publié des réglementations fixant des limites maximales de concentration en mycotoxines autorisées dans les aliments destinés à l'homme et aux animaux. La plupart des pays développés n'autoriseront pas l'importation de denrées aux teneurs en mycotoxines supérieures aux valeurs autorisées. Les mycotoxines ont par consequent des implicat ions sur le commerce entre les nations. La prévention de la contamination des denrées par les champignons est de loin la méthode la plus efficace pour éviter les problèmes de mycotoxines. Les mycotoxines doivent donc faire partie intégrante des programmes de gestion intégrée des denrées qui se concentrent sur la préservation de la qualité des denrées du champ jusqu'au consommateur.

    Mycotoxins are among the most potent causes of cancer. Ingestion through the diet can pose chronic health risks for both humans and livestock. Death may occur as a result of acute poisoning. Mycotoxins are chemicals produced by fungal moulds. These moulds grow during production, harvesting and storage of grain, pulses, nuts, roots and other crops. This booklet is directed at the farm situation, providing advice that can be used to avoid mycotoxin contamination before food leaves the farm. The booklet describes what mycotoxins are, how they are produced and how to recognise signs of their presence. It provides advice to enable farmers to minimise the risk from mould contamination whilst the crop is growing, during harvest and through storage.

    Mycotoxins in Grain 1997

    The presence of mycotoxins in grains and other staple foods and feedstuffs has serious implications for human and animal health. Many countries have enacted regulations stipulating maximum amounts of mycotoxins permissible in food and feedstuffs. Most developed countries will not permit the import of commodities containing amounts of mycotoxins above specified limits. Mycotoxins therefore have implications for trade between nations. Prevention of fungal invasion of commodities is by far the mo st effective method of avoiding mycotoxin problems. Mycotoxin considerations should be a component of an integrated commodity management program focusing on the maintenance of commodity quality from the field to the consumer.
