Hi all,
I would like to find feed ingredients (such as corn gluten meal, wheat) naturally contaminated with DON/ T-2 toxin.
Is there anyone working with mycotoxins that can advise me where I can search for contaminated ingredients?
Any suggestion would be highly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

Hey Vivi,
I'm also working with mycotoxins specialy in Aflatoxins in fish feed. In my country most of the feed producers are manufacturing feed as small scale house hold busness.Most of them didn't check any thing (nutritive value or mycotoxins) in the feeding ingredients. So we can find contaminated feeding ingredients without full effort. But I don't know about your country. If people are produce feed as house hold busness, you can easily find the contaminated ingredients.
Hi Thilini Madurangika Jayasinghe ,
Good to hear that you also do work with mycotoxins in aquafeeds.
I am based in the Netherlands, and feed is produced in large-scale operations.
In case you find ingredients contaminated with DON or T-2 toxin soon, please let me know.
Thank you.

Contact people in Germany or Austria were DON has been a problem for years.

Ask dr Hoogenboom (Rikilt, Wageningen) or Prof. Fink-Gremmels (Utrecht University) I am out of the field too long.
Lukasz Panasiuk probably can help with this issue. Please contact him.
In Canada we have high contaminated material remain from sorting processes. which levels are you looking for?
Hi, did you find already these materials ? Otherwise, please contact me.
