The number of research papers (128 papers) on mycotoxins published by Brazilian
researchers in 1991-2000 surpassed the total number (85 papers) published in the …

This is the first book to focus on the scientific principles underlying the fermentation
processes of cocoa and coffee beans and their impact on product quality and safety. The text …

In this study, the probability of occurrence of fumonisins in corn in the states of greatest
production in Brazil was determined. The data were analyzed through quantitative risk …

Abstract Fumonisin B 1 (FB 1) is one of the mycotoxins produced by Fusarium verticillioides,
which was mainly found in corn and related products. FB 1 was small molecule with no …

Field trials were conducted from 2007 to 2010 to compare grain fumonisin levels among non-
Bt maize hybrids and Bt hybrids with transgenic protection against manual infestations of …

A novel enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay based on magnetic nanoparticles and
biotin/streptavidin-HRP (MNP-bsELISA) was developed for rapid and sensitive detection of …

An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) based on polyclonal antibody with
enhanced chemiluminescent (ECL) detection of fumonisin B1 (FB1) in food samples has …

An indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ic-ELISA) based on an anti-
aflatoxin B1 monoclonal antibody was standardised and validated for aflatoxin screening in …

The natural co-occurrence of fumonisins and aflatoxins was investigated in freshly harvested
corn kernels (150 samples, 62 hybrids), acquired from the Central-Southern (27 samples, 21 …

Fumonisins (FBs), possible carcinogen to humans, are known to occur as a natural
contaminant of corn worldwide. A monoclonal antibody (McAb) against FB1, which has high …
