Abstract

 

Introduction: Controlling mycotoxins in food provides early risk detection since their presence, even in legally permitted concentrations, increases the possibility of health risk occurences, such as allergy manifestations, and they can have potentially toxic, carcinogenic and genotoxic effects. The aim of the paper is to determine the frequency of the presence of mycotoxins within the group of 'cereals and cereal products' in the Republic of Srpska due to their public health importance and possible health risks, and then to point out the need for monitoring the other mycotoxins specified by regulations.
Material and methods: Examination was conducted on 208 samples of cereals products. Determination of the frequency of the presence of mycotoxins was conducted  on a legally prescribed methodology of sampling, chemical analyses and preparation of expert opinions on food safety in accordance with current food regulations. Chi-square test (c2) of contingency and descriptive statistical indicators were used for testing the significance of differences in presence of mycotoxins analyzed in samples of cereals and recommended by regulations.
Results: The results indicate that no health defective food samples were determined at tested parameters - aflatoxins B1, B2, G1, G2, total aflatoxins, ochratoxin A i zerealenone. A statistically significant number of samples examined on aflatoxins(6.63%), ochratoxin A(5.65%) and zerealenone(0.25%) was not determined comparing to the other mycotoxins recommended by regulations (deoxynivalenol, 2 and HT-2 toxins, fumonisins) (c2 =0.205, p=0.651).
Discussion with conslusion: A long-term exposure to mycotoxins, even in permitted concentrations, can damage health, meaning that each early detection of mycotoxins as a food risk found through continuous control has had a public health significance for preservation and promotion of population health in the Republic of Srpska.
