Abstract
Summary The material investigated in 2009–2011 were 203 samples of maize grain. The aim of the study was to evaluate the content of the mycotoxins: deoxynivalenol (DON), nivalenol (NIV), T-2 toxin, HT-2 toxin, zearalenone (ZEA) and fumonisins (FUM) using a high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with MS/MS (tandem mass spectrometry) detection and mycological analysis of selected samples. Identified species of fungi confirmed that the maize grain was dominated by moulds of the toxicogenic potential. All the analyzed samples revealed the presence of Fusarium mycotoxins with varying level in each year of the study.
