Occurrence of deoxynivalenol and nivalenol in Spanish corn based food products. A survey of the content of the trichothecene mycotoxins deoxynivalenol and nivalenol in 175 samples of commercial corn based foods including breakfast cereals and snacks on sale in Spain is presented. Deoxynivalenol was detected in about 40 and 20 of breakfast cereal and snack samples respectively. Nivalenol was detected in about 11 and 1 of the samples. Contamination levels did not exceed the EU maximum limits for either deoxynivalenol or nivalenol and consumer intakes were well below the proposed tolerable daily intakes for the mycotoxins.Castillo M.A. Montes R.
