Examination of Chinese and U.S.S.R. cereals for the Fusarium mycotoxins, nivalenol, deoxynivalenol and zearalenone. 1986

Y Ueno, and U S Lee, and T Tanaka, and A Hasegawa, and Y Matsuki

Cereals, foods and feeds sampled in Taiwan, China and the U.S.S.R. were contaminated with nivalenol, deoxynivalenol and zearalenone. The frequencies and levels of contamination are similar to those observed in the cereals of Japan and Korea. This is the first report on the natural occurrence of nivalenol, deoxynivalenol and zearalenone in Chinese and U.S.S.R. cereals, foods and feeds.
