title: [Effects of handling and processing on deoxynivalenol and zearalenone content of cereals and cereal products].
abstract: Since national limits have been introduced for the content of DON and ZEA in cereals and cereal products designated for human consumption, it is highly important to understand how these toxins are distributed during sorting, cleaning and further processing to bakery products and pasta. Cereals from several crops were analysed before and after sorting and cleaning. After milling, flours, breads, semolinas, pastas and others were analysed. The results show that that the distribution of DON and ZEA was different. ZEA was more effectively removed than DON. The efficacy of the various processes varied markedly from one lot to the other.
