  1. Mycotoxin contamination of Maize and Guinea corn from markets in Plateau State, Nigeria. Maize (Zea mays) and guinea corn (Sorghum bicolor) are major food items in Plateau state, Nigeria. A multistage sampling technique was used to select the markets and store/warehouses used for this study; sample collection employed a simple random sampling method from different sampling points within designated areas. A total of 18 representative samples were collected and analyzed for the followin. 2015. Okeke, O. F. I.; Fapohunda, S. O.; Soares, Célia Maria Gonçalves; Lima, Nelson; Ayanbimpe, G.

Las micotoxinas son metabolitos tóxicos producidos por hongos filamentosos que aparecen de forma natural en productos agroalimentarios en todo el mundo. Las aflatoxinas, ocratoxina A, patulina, fumonisinas, zearalenona, tricotecenos y alcaloides del ergot son actualmente las más relevantes. Estas micotoxinas pueden ser producidas por especies que pertenecen a los géneros Aspergillus spp, Penicilli. 2012.
