Measuring toxin zearalenone from wheat the city superior in wheat production in Iran

Introduction: Zearalenone is a mycotoxin compound produced mainly by the Fusarium species of fungi which is present in several types of foods. Zearalenone (ZEA), a widely distributed oestrogenic fusariotoxin, constitutes a potential risk for human and animal health. Mycotoxins have adverse effects including infertility, abortion and cancer. Zearalenone (ZEA) is estrogenic mycotoxin of fusarium spp that grows on cereals (wheat). Fusarium species are commonly associated with cereals can produce several secondary toxic metabolites. Materilas and methods: In the samples collected from city superior manufacturer and the collection and preparation of the cell extracts by ELISA Kits and Ryda Screen Zearalenone analysis of the samples produced Zearalenone analyzed. Results: Thus Germy of the city of Ardabil with a amount of 19.84 ppb and Kordkuy of the city of Golestan with the least amount of zearalenone by 11.14 ppb have been defined respectively.
