Abstract
The alternariol and alternariol monomethyl ether contamination in sunflower seeds was determined. The levels of alternariol found ranged between 35 to 792 µg/kg and 90 to 630 µg/kg for alternariol monomethyl ether. The fungicides showed different effect on the mycotoxin production depending on the substrate, strains and toxin analysed. Mercury phenyl acetate, Octave, Metiram, Thiram and Orthene inhibited alternariol monomethyl ether production while for alternariol production only Thiram, Metiram and Octave were effective.
