Creator | Rabie, C. J. | |
Description | Problems concerning the contamination of foods by toxic fungi and mycotoxins are reviewed. Mycotoxin contamination of specific South African foodstuffs such as maize, sorghum, oats, chicory, imported foodstuffs and certain processed foods is discussed. Emphasis is placed on those toxic fungi where the toxic metabolites are unknown and which regularly contaminate staple foods. Law-enforcement problems concerning mycotoxin contamination of food commodities are discussed. 'n Oorsig word gegee van die probleme rakende die kontaminasie van voedsel deur toksiese fungi en mikotoksiene. Mikotoksienkontaminasie van spesifieke voedselkommoditeite in die RSA, soos mielies, sorghum, hawer, sigorei, ingevoerde voedselmiddels en sekere verwerkte voedsels, word bespreek. Klein word gele op toksiese fungi wat gereeld en in hoe konsentrasie in stapelvoedsels voorkom en waarvan die bepaalde mikoloksien onbekend is. Probleme rakende wetstoepassing aangaande die mikotoksienkontaminasie van voedsel word kortliks bespreek. | |
