Ochratoxin A - health risk assessment for selected population groups in the Czech Republic - 2th year of solution of a new research project
Original language description
Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a very important mycotoxin and is produced by Aspergillus and Penicillium species. OTA is mycotoxin with genotoxic, carcinogenic, teratogenic and immunosuppressive effects. This mycotoxin is a common contaminant of various foods including cereals, spices, coffee, cacao, beer, wine, raisins, pulses. Samples from 53 types of foodstuffs of plant origin were collected in 4 sampling terms at 12 regions of the Czech Republic in years 2011-2012. In total, 636 food samples were gathered and analyzed. Validated and accredited ultra-trace HPLC-FD method has been used for OTA determination. The food samples were cleaned by immunoaffinity chromatography (OCHRAPREPR columns, R-Biopharm, Germany) (SKARKOVA and OSTRY, 2012). Limit of quantification of the method (LOQ) ranged between 0.01-0.2 --#956;g/kg depending on the type of sample matrix. Quality of laboratory results was assured by successful participation in international inter-laboratory proficiency testing (FAPAS, FERA,
