基于不同监测年份下小麦DON含量与籽粒特点研究

以2016～2019年江淮下游地区新收获小麦为监测对象,在前期研究基础上系统分析不同呕吐毒素(DON)含量小麦的籽粒特征。结果表明:随DON含量增大小麦各类粒型呈现明显不同的变化规律,赤霉病粒、发芽粒和破损粒比例均呈现变大趋势,而黑胚粒则无相关性;玉米赤霉烯酮(ZEN)随DON含量升高而变大且呈显著线性关系。不同年份"纵向监测"与同年份"横向监测"其规律一致。     

河南产麦区小麦镰刀菌毒素污染状况及农民摄入量

检测了赤霉病麦大流行年份及非流行年份小麦中镰刀菌毒素含量,并计算求得农民通过小麦摄入的毒素量。赤霉病麦发病率为34.3%的1985年,小麦中 DON、NIV和 ZEN 含量中位数分别为923.0ppb、128.2ppb 和15.3ppb;每人每日投入量 DON 为528.1微克,NIV 为62.4微克。赤霉病麦发病率<3%的1986年,小麦 DON 含量中位数为14.微克;农民撮入量为9.4微克/人/日。镰刀菌分离结果表明主要为禾谷镰刀菌。值得注意的是发现黄曲霉与禾谷镰刀菌共存于麦粒上。     

小麦中呕吐毒素的影响因素和污染特性分析

以小麦为研究对象,分析影响呕吐毒素,即脱氧雪腐镰刀菌烯醇（deoxynivalenol,DON）含量的相关因素,研究小麦不同粒型及籽粒不同部位DON的污染特性、分布差异。结果表明,小麦籽粒染病、破损,籽粒粒径及虫蛀类型对DON污染均有影响,DON含量与不完善粒含量呈显著的弱正相关,与赤霉病粒含量呈显著的强正相关。相同品种的小麦样品,小麦不同粒型和籽粒不同部位,DON含量存在很大差异,其中赤霉病粒显著高于未染病粒,破损粒显著高于完整粒,小颗粒显著高于大颗粒,籽粒胚部显著高于胚乳,粒面DON含量占35.2%～52.1%。胚乳结构越靠近外层,DON污染越严重,越靠近籽粒中心,DON污染越轻,制粉后外层麸皮DON含量较高,而可食用的小麦粉含量较低。小麦通过分级、分选、水洗和制粉加工可有效降低DON的污染。     

小麦中呕吐毒素的分布规律及加工影响

采用自然污染不同程度呕吐毒素的小麦为材料,通过检测制粉工艺过程中不同产物如麸皮、细麸、皮粉、心粉中呕吐毒素含量,探索小麦不同部位呕吐毒素的含量分布及制粉工艺中去除DON的效果。结果表明:呕吐毒素在小麦中的污染程度从外到内逐步递减;经过小麦制粉加工工艺后,存留在面粉中的DON浓度仅为原来小麦中DON浓度的49.17%～77.68%,而粗麸及细麸中DON浓度为原来小麦中DON浓度的132.00%～185.96%。另外,小麦中呕吐毒素的含量跟赤霉病粒的含量不存在完全的一一对应的线性关系,赤霉病粒含量的多少不能完全反应小麦中呕吐毒素的含量。     

真菌毒素在赤霉病小麦研磨及其湿法加工中的分布研究

小麦赤霉病不仅会导致粮食减产,更会引起多种真菌毒素的高污染风险。将染病小麦进行实验室制粉并湿法分离统粉中的粗淀粉、谷朊粉,采用酶联免疫吸附测定法(Enzyme-Linked Immuno Sorbent Assay,ELISA)测定各系统的呕吐毒素(Deoxynivalenol,DON)、黄曲霉毒素B1(Aflatoxin B1,AFB1)、玉米赤霉烯酮(Zearalenone,ZEN)以及赭曲霉毒素A(Ochratoxin A,OTA)的含量,以探究赤霉病小麦在制粉及其湿法加工中四种常见真菌毒素的分布变化规律。结果显示:研磨制粉及湿法加工对真菌毒素的分布影响显著。制粉加工后,皮磨和心磨系统粉的DON、AFB1、ZEN和OTA含量比原粮显著降低,降低率分别为1.38~16.24%、20.47~71.77%及26.71~69.51%;湿法加工产物中,DON消减为相应统粉的4.88~12.11%,AFB1与OTA浓缩富集,富集率分别可达统粉的2.55、3.65倍,粗淀粉中ZEN消减为统粉的12.70~15.83%,谷朊粉则富集为统粉的4.11倍。研究表明,在工业生产中,可根据赤霉病小麦的感染类型及程度,适当选用研磨或湿法加工等合适的方法加工处理。     

赤霉病对小麦品质影响的研究

选取2012年江苏产硬质白小麦,制备不同赤霉病含量的小麦样品,探讨不同赤霉病含量对小麦籽粒品质、小麦粉品质影响程度,以及由小麦赤霉病病原菌分泌产生的脱氧雪腐镰刀菌烯醇(DON毒素)在小麦籽粒中积累分布情况。实验结果表明,随着小麦样品中赤霉病麦含量的升高,涉及小麦籽粒品质、小麦粉品质的主要指标明显下降;同时DON毒素在小麦籽粒中积累分布,皮层中含量明显高于胚乳(小麦粉)中的含量。     

60Co-γ辐照对赤霉病小麦中DON的降解效果

采用60Co-γ射线辐照技术处理赤霉病小麦,结果表明:此技术可以降解赤霉病小麦中一定量的DON,降解率随辐照剂量的增加而逐渐升高。当辐照达到安全剂量10 k Gy时,赤霉病小麦籽粒中DON的降解率超过20%,若不结合其他小麦加工工艺,该技术可将DON含量低于1.25 mg/kg的赤霉病小麦降低到安全范围之内(DON含量≤1 mg/kg);小麦的物理形态、籽粒含水量及赤霉病感染程度对DON的辐照降解无显著影响(P0.05);此外,赤霉病麦粒经水浸泡后再辐照可以在很大程度上促进DON的降解,在安全剂量10 k Gy时降解率最高可达到55.76%。     

安徽河南粮食中脱氧雪腐镰刀菌烯醇和玉米赤霉烯酮的污染调查

目的：调查安徽、河南两省粮食中镰刀菌毒素污染情况。方法：以玉米、小麦为材料,分别采用酶联免疫吸附法(ELISA)和高效液相色谱法(HPLC)检测了脱氧雪腐镰刀菌烯醇(DON)和玉米赤霉烯酮(ZEN)的含量,采用SPSS软件对检测结果进行统计学分析。结果：安徽河南两省玉米、小麦中的DON和ZEN含量平均值分别为424.0μg/kg和187.2μg/kg,检出率分别为76.7%和75.3%。其他省份的玉米、小麦中DON和ZEN含量的平均值为52.2μg/kg和24.1μg/kg,检出率分别为60%和70%。结论：和其他省份相比,安徽、河南两省的粮食受镰刀菌毒素污染程度更严重。根据现有的国家限量标准,ZEN的超标率比DON更高。     

小麦赤霉病情与麦粒中DON含量关系的分析

为分析小麦赤霉病田间病情、病粒率与麦粒中脱氧雪腐镰刀菌烯醇(DON)含量的关系,以感染赤霉病不同病情的小麦样品为材料,用高效液相色谱法(HPLC)检测了麦粒中DON的含量。结果表明:麦粒中DON含量随田间病情级别或病粒率的提高而增加,呈极显著相关。依据病粒率推算DON含量,具有一定的实用性,但在小麦品种间以及不同病情条件下的理论值误差较大。     

超声波处理对脱氧雪腐镰刀菌烯醇（DON）的降解效果研究

为了降低小麦中脱氧雪腐镰刀菌烯醇的含量,本文采用超声波处理促进其降解,考察了超声时间、超声振幅和脉冲占空比分别对DON纯品和赤霉病小麦籽粒中DON的降解效果。结果表明:延长超声时间、增大超声振幅、升高脉冲占空比都会在一定程度上促进纯品DON溶液和赤霉病小麦籽粒中DON的降解。综合考虑其经济效益,当超声时间为18 min、振幅为50%、脉冲占空比为100%(连续超声)时,纯品DON降解率最高(32.25%)。当超声时间为15 min、振幅为60%、连续超声时,赤霉病小麦籽粒中DON降解率高达37.59%,表明超声波处理对纯品DON和赤霉病小麦籽粒均有较好的降解效果。     

Estimating mycotoxin contents of Fusarium-damaged winter wheat kernels

Winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L., cultivars Ritmo and Dekan) grain was sampled in Northern Germany between 2001 and 2006. Kernels damaged by fungi of the genus Fusarium were separated from sound grain by visual assessment. Samples containing 0%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80% and 100% of Fusarium-damaged kernels were compiled and analyzed for the Fusarium type B trichothecenes deoxynivalenol (DON, 2001-2006), nivalenol (NIV, 2006), 3-acetyl-deoxynivalenol (3AcDON, 2006) and 15-acetyl-deoxynivalenol (15AcDON, 2006). The relationship between mycotoxin contents and the percentage of Fusarium-damaged kernels was calculated for each lot of grain. Apart from one exception, relationships between the percentage of Fusarium-damaged kernels and NIV, 3AcDON or 15AcDON were non-significant. In contrast, close relationships between the percentage of Fusarium-damaged kernels and the DON content were observed (r(2)=0.93-0.99). The y-axis intercepts were not significantly different from zero, but the DON content of the damaged kernels varied by a factor of 11.59 between years and by a factor of 1.87 between cultivars. Fusarium-damaged kernels contained between 0.21 and 2.39 microg DON kernel(-1). The overall average DON content of a Fusarium-damaged wheat kernel was 1.29 +/- 0.11 microg. The DON content of diseased kernels was affected by environment and wheat genotype but not by genotype x environment interaction. On average, Fusarium-damaged kernels contained 9.7-fold more DON than 15AcDON, 19.5-fold more DON than NIV, and 26.9-fold more DON than 3AcDON. 3AcDON and 15AcDON contents per wheat kernel were not significantly different between cultivars. On average, 4.27% of Fusarium-damaged kernels were sufficient to reach the 1.25 mg DON kg(-1) grain limit for unprocessed cereals in the EU. Given the low percentages of Fusarium-damaged kernels that are equivalent to current legal DON limits, grading accuracies >96% would be needed when using automatic grading systems for separating sound from damaged kernels.     

Estimating deoxynivalenol contents of wheat samples containing different levels of Fusarium-damaged kernels by diffuse reflectance spectrometry and partial least square regression

Fusarium head blight is a fungal disease causing yield losses and mycotoxin contamination in wheat and other cereals. Wheat kernels (cultivar Ritmo) were sampled in 2001, 2002, 2003, and 2006 and Fusarium-damaged kernels were separated from sound grain based on visual assessment. Subsequently, grain lots containing 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, and 100% of damaged kernels were compiled. Each lot was split and the spectrometric reflectance (wavelengths 350-2500 nm) was measured using subgroup one, while the concentration of the mycotoxin deoxynivalenol (DON) was determined by high-performance liquid chromatography in subgroup two. DON concentrations in batches classified as sound were not significantly different from 0. Estimating DON contents from the percentage of Fusarium-damaged kernels was impeded by vast variability, resulting in a coefficient of determination of 0.49. Using spectrometric data subjected to partial least square regression allowed estimating DON contents with higher accuracy, in particular at elevated percentages of damaged kernels. The coefficient of determination was 0.84 for the relationship between DON contents estimated based on spectrometric data and the DON contents measured. The intercept of a regression line fitted through a plot of estimated versus measured DON contents was 0.89 ± 3.61 mg/kg. Since intercept + standard error was larger than the actual legal limit (1.25 mg DON per kg dry grain in the European Union), the spectrometric procedure was still not precise enough to allow a reliable separation of grain samples with DON contents below 1.25 mg/kg from samples with DON contents above the limit. However, spectrometric data also allowed estimating the DON content of the average damaged kernel within a given lot composed of sound and damaged kernels, which is probably the reason for the reduction of the fraction of unexplained variance by 35% compared to the visual approach and illustrates that spectrometric approaches can make a contribution to reducing DON contents of wheat grain.     

小麦中呕吐毒素含量与质量的关系及其在加工过程中的变化研究

研究检测小麦样品中容重、赤霉病粒、不完善粒、色泽以及呕吐毒素等指标，通过数据分析，得出小麦呕吐毒素含量与赤霉病粒存在一定的正相关，并检测小麦籽粒不同部位呕吐毒素的含量。结果显示，皮层、糊粉层高于胚乳；对小麦进行筛理，去除杂质和赤霉病粒，发现经过筛理小麦中呕吐毒素含量会下降4.6%~22%；对比分析小麦粉和小麦粉馒头中呕吐毒素的含量，发现小麦粉通过蒸煮等加工过程，呕吐毒素含量并不会减少，仍然有较高残留。     

Ozone treatment to reduce deoxynivalenol (DON) and zearalenone (ZEN) contamination in wheat bran and its impact on nutritional quality

Wheat bran is an important source for human and animal feed. Its nutritional aspects include a high content of fibre and minerals, as well as phenolic compounds that help prevent chronic diseases. However, wheat can be susceptible to contamination by fungus, which can produce mycotoxins such as deoxynivalenol (DON) and zearalenone (ZEN), causing adverse health effects. Therefore, methods should be developed to reduce possible contamination. Ozone can be used for this purpose as it is considered safe and environmental friendly. The aim of this study was to evaluate the reduction of DON and ZEN concentrations in wheat bran using the ozonation process as well as to evaluate the effect of ozonation on the nutritional quality of bran. Considering this, wheat bran naturally contaminated with both DON and ZEN was processed using ozone at different conditions. The nutritional quality of the bran was evaluated after processing considering the following aspects: the total phenolic content and the bran antioxidant capacity (by using both DPPH and ABTS radicals). The results showed that the degradation of ZEN was higher and faster than the degradation of DON, which could be explained by their molecular structures. The total phenolic content and antioxidant capacity of the bran were not affected by the ozonation process, which is preferable from a nutritional point of view. Therefore, ozonation was demonstrated to be a possible method for reducing mycotoxins in wheat bran, although more studies are needed in order to better understand and optimise processing and product quality.     

Development and application of analytical methods for the determination of mycotoxins in organic and conventional wheat.

The aim of this study was to develop a multicomponent analytical method for the determination of deoxynivalenol (DON), ochratoxin A (OTA) and zearalenone (ZEN), nivalenol (NIV), 3-acetyl-DON (3-acDON), 15-acetyl-DON (15-acDON), zearalenol (ZOL) and citrinin (CIT) in wheat. It also aimed to survey the presence and amounts of DON, OTA and ZEN in Belgian conventionally and organically produced wheat grain and in wholemeal wheat flours. After solvent extraction, an anion-exchange column (SAX) was used to fix the acidic mycotoxins (OTA, CIT), whilst the neutral mycotoxins flowing through the SAX column were further purified by filtration on a MycoSep cartridge. OTA and CIT were then analysed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) using an isocratic flow and fluorescence detection, while the neutral mycotoxins were separated by a linear gradient and detected by double-mode (ultraviolet light fluorescence) detection. The average DON, ZEN and OTA recovery rates from spiked blank wheat flour were 92, 83 and 73% (RSDR = 12, 10 and 9%), respectively. Moreover, this method offered the respective detection limits of 50, 1.5 and 0.05 microg kg-1 and good agreement with reference methods and inter-laboratory comparison exercises. Organic and conventional wheat samples harvested in 2002 and 2003 in Belgium were analysed for DON, OTA and ZEN, while wholemeal wheat flour samples were taken from Belgian retail shops and analysed for OTA and DON. Conventional wheat tended to be more frequently contaminated with DON and ZEN than organic samples, the difference being more significant for ZEN in samples harvested in 2002. The mean OTA, DON and ZEA concentrations were 0.067, 675 and 75 microg kg-1 in conventional samples against 0.063, 285 and 19 microg kg-1 in organically produced wheat in 2002, respectively. Wheat samples collected in 2003 were less affected by DON and ZEN than the 2002 harvest. Organic wholemeal wheat flours were more frequently contaminated by OTA than conventional samples (p < 0.10). The opposite pattern was shown for DON, organic samples being more frequently contaminated than conventional flours (p < 0.10).     

The coexistence of the Fusarium mycotoxins nivalenol, deoxynivalenol and zearalenone in Korean cereals harvested in 1983

A survey for the occurrence of nivalenol (NIV), deoxynivalenol (DON) and zearalenone (ZEN) in Korean cereals (totalling 53 samples) harvested in 1983, showed that 96%, 72% and 57% of the samples were contaminated with NIV, DON and ZEN, respectively. Average concentrations (micrograms/kg) in unpolished barley were 546 (NIV), 117 (DON) and 110 (ZEN), and those in polished barley were 130 (NIV) and 21 (DON). The ZEN levels were below the detection limit (1 microgram/kg). Malt, wheat and rye were also heavily contaminated with these Fusarium mycotoxins. The results of this survey show that Korean cereals harvested in 1983 were significantly contaminated with NIV, DON and ZEN, and the incidence and levels, where observed, are similar to those reported in Japan.     

A limited survey of Fusarium mycotoxins nivalenol, deoxynivalenol and zearalenone in 1984 UK harvested wheat and barley

A limited survey for the occurrence of nivalenol (NIV), deoxynivalenol (DON) and zearalenone (ZEN) in 1984 UK-grown cereals (31 samples) have been carried out using a new procedure, which is a rapid and sensitive method for Fusarium mycotoxins. NIV, DON and ZEN were detected in 17 (55%), 20 (65%) and 4 (13%) out of 31 samples, and average levels in positive samples were 101 micrograms/kg, 31 micrograms/kg and 1 microgram/kg, respectively. Additional surveys on two wheat and eight barley samples harvested in Scotland have shown that 30%, 60% and 100% of the samples were contaminated with NIV, DON and ZEN, respectively. The contents averaged 391 micrograms/kg of NIV, 39 micrograms/kg of DON and 9 micrograms/kg of ZEN. The results of this survey show that UK-grown cereals were significantly contaminated with NIV, DON and ZEN in a similar way to that observed in Japan, Korea and China. This is the first evidence of the natural occurrence of NIV in UK cereals.     

Further survey on the Fusarium mycotoxins in Korean cereals

Fifty-one samples of cereals from the 1984 harvest from Korea were analyzed for nivalenol (NIV), fusarenon-X (FX), deoxynivalenol (DON) and 3-acetyl-DON by gas chromatography (GC) utilizing a 63Ni electron capture detector (ECD), and were quantitated for zearalenone (ZEN) by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with a fluorescence detector (FD). Trichothecenes and ZEN in the positive samples were confirmed by GC-mass spectrometry (MS). Out of 51 samples, 51, 46 and 42 were positive for NIV, DON and ZEN, respectively, and one malt sample was heavily contaminated with NIV (2675 ng/g) and DON (246 ng/g), and one wheat sample was heavily contaminated with NIV (3169 ng/g). Neither FX nor 3-acetyl-DON was detected in any of the samples. The data reported here indicates that Korean cereals harvested in 1984 are simultaneously contaminated with NIV, DON and ZEN, and the incidences and levels are similar to those observed in the cereals harvested in 1983.
