Abstract EN
The aim of the study was to determine the mycobiota and natural levels of mycotoxins such as aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), ochratoxin A (OTA), fumonisin B1 (FB1), and deoxynivalenol (DON) present in brewers grains pre- and poststored intended for bovine intensive rearing.
Poststored (80%) samples had counts higher than 1×104 colony-forming units (CFU/g).
Cladosporium spp.
and Aspergillus spp.
were isolated at high frequencies.
Aspergillus flavus was the prevalent isolated species.
Prestored (70%) and poststored (100%) samples showed AFB1 levels over the recommended limits (20 μg/Kg), and OTA levels were below the recommended limits (50 μg/Kg) while pre- and poststored samples did not show FB1 and DON natural contamination levels.
The presence of mycotoxins in this substrate indicates the existence of contamination.
Regular monitoring of feeds is required in order to prevent chronic and acute toxic syndromes related to this kind of contamination.
