Abstract: | In 1985 82 samples of feed and food grain were analyzed for trichothecenes deoxynivalenol (DON), nivalenol (NV), diacetoxyscirpenol (DAS), T-2 toxin, HT-2 toxin and fusarenon-X (F-X). Trichothecenes were found in 77 of these samples. The highest amounts were DON 6300 ug/kg and DAS 1680 ug/kg.In 1986, in a corresponding study of 113 samples, trichothecenes were found in 110 samples. A new trichothecene in Finland, 3-acetyldeoxynivalenol (3-AcDON), was identified in 35 of these samples in concentration of 2–211 ug/kg.Analyzing methods were gas chromatography and GC-mass spectrometry. It is characteristic of the feed samples suspected of causing outbreaks in animals in Finland that several trichothecenes are often found in the same sample. As an example of this is a poultry feed with following results: DON 33 ug/kg, 3-AcDON 21 ug/kg, DAS 45 ug/kg, T-2 toxin 40 ug/kg, HT-2 toxin 12 ug/kg. |
