Abstract
The presence of ochratoxin A (OA) in human milk samples from different regions in Norway was investigated to determine the level of infant exposure to OA from human milk. OA was found in 38 (33%) of 115 human milk samples (range 10–130 ng l−1). It was found that 2–26% of the samples contained more than 40 ng l−1 OA, which will cause a daily intake of OA from human milk exceeding the suggested tolerable dose of 5ng kg−1 body weight. Significant regional differences were found.
