Multiannual occurrence of mycotoxins in feed ingredients and complete feeds for pigs in the Czech Republic

Abstract:
The aim of the study was to evaluate the individual and combined occurrence of mycotoxins in feed ingredients and complete feeds for pigs in the Czech Republic in the years 2013–2017. The samples were analysed for the occurrence of aflatoxins (AF), deoxynivalenol (DON), zearalenone (ZEA), ochratoxin A (OTA), fumonisins (FUM), and T-2/H-2 toxins. The mycotoxin most commonly found in maize and small cereal grain samples was deoxynivalenol (94% and 53%, respectively). Deoxynivalenol was also the most frequent mycotoxin in all types of swine feed. The most frequent mycotoxin combinations in the total number of samples were DON + ZEA (56.63%), DON + OTA (11.61%) and DON + sum of T2/HT2 (9.76%). The maximum values set by the European Commission for mycotoxin levels in feed ingredients and complete feeds were exceeded in the case of AFB1, deoxynivalenol, zearalenone, ochratoxin A and T-2/ H-2 toxins. Our findings support the need for further monitoring of mycotoxins in feed ingredients and complete feeds for pigs in the Czech Republic. Aflatoxin, deoxynivalenol, zearalenone, ochratoxin, fumonisins, T-2 toxin, maize, cereals, swine Mycotoxins represent a serious problem in swine production because they can have a major effect on the health and productivity of pigs (Chaytor et al. 2011). Mycotoxins are secondary fungal metabolites that are toxic to both animals and humans. Approximately 400 mycotoxins have been identified to date, the majority being produced by species of the genera Aspergillus, Penicillium and Fusarium (Jard et al. 2011). The contamination of agricultural commodities and feed with mycotoxins can occur under favourable conditions during plant growth, storage and harvest. The growth of fungi is influenced mainly by temperature and moisture conditions (Binder et al. 2007). Swine belong to the species that are often affected by mycotoxins. The most important mycotoxins affecting swine health are aflatoxin (AF), deoxynivalenol (DON), ochratoxin A (OTA), zearalenone (ZEA) and fumonisins (FUM) (Chaytor et al. 2011). The contamination of swine feed can cause reduced animal productivity and immune suppression (Oswald and Comara 1998). Various fungi can produce several mycotoxins simultaneously and commodities can also be contaminated by different fungal species. Therefore, the contamination of crops with ACTA VET.

Interactions between mycotoxins can be antagonistic, additive or synergistic (Monbaliu et al. 2010). The European Union has established regulations concerning the occurrence of mycotoxins in feed ingredients and complete feeds. Commission Directive 2002/32/EC sets maximum levels for AFB1. Commission Recommendation 2006/576/EC gives maximum levels for DON, ZEA, OTA and the sum of FUM B1 and B2. Knowledge on the mycotoxin prevalence is required for the efficient prevention of mycotoxicosis in pigs. Therefore, we decided to conduct this study in order to evaluate the individual and combined occurrence of mycotoxins in feed ingredients and complete feeds for pigs in the Czech Republic. Materials and Methods Samples of maize, small cereal grains and complete feeds for swine were collected from all over the Czech Republic in the years 2013–2017. They were delivered by feed producers, farmers and veterinarians. The samples were taken and prepared in compliance with the method described by the European Commission Regulation 152/2009. The samples were analysed for the occurrence of AF, DON, ZEA, OTA, FUM, and T-2 and H-2 toxins. The analyses were made according to the needs of feed producers, farmers and veterinarians. Since the samples were collected by private subjects we could not influence their choice of samples. Therefore the samples were not examined as random screening but as samples analysed based on previous suspect of contamination. Therefore each sample was analysed only for selected mycotoxins (as decided by private suppliers of samples). The individual samples were not analysed for the occurrence of all mycotoxins. The total numbers of analysed samples for particular mycotoxins are presented in Table 1. The performance of the analyses involved cooperation between four certified laboratories. The analyses were done at selected institutes (see below) by their highperformance liquid chromatography (HPLC) methods and the liquid chromatography with mass detection (LC-MS/MS) method or competitive direct enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) methods. Detailed procedures are subsequently listed for each workplace. All samples were well homogenized by grinding before the analysis.

期刊预警不是论文评价,更不是否定预警期刊发表的每项成果。《国际期刊预警名单(试行)》旨在提醒科研人员审慎选择成果发表平台、提示出版机构强化期刊质量管理。

预警期刊的识别采用定性与定量相结合的方法。通过专家咨询确立分析维度及评价指标,而后基于指标客观数据产生具体名单。

具体而言,就是通过综合评判期刊载文量、作者国际化程度、拒稿率、论文处理费(APC)、期刊超越指数、自引率、撤稿信息等,找出那些具备风险特征、具有潜在质量问题的学术期刊。最后,依据各刊数据差异,将预警级别分为高、中、低三档,风险指数依次减弱。

《国际期刊预警名单(试行)》确定原则是客观、审慎、开放。期刊分区表团队期待与科研界、学术出版机构一起,夯实科学精神,打造气正风清的学术诚信环境!真诚欢迎各界就预警名单的分析维度、使用方案、值得关切的期刊等提出建议!

关于2019年中科院分区升级版(试行)

分区表升级版(试行)旨在解决期刊学科体系划分与学科发展以及融合趋势的不相容问题。由于学科交叉在当代科研活动的趋势愈发显著,学科体系构建容易引发争议。为了打破学科体系给期刊评价带来的桎梏,“升级版方案”首先构建了论文层级的主题体系,然后分别计算每篇论文在所属主题的影响力,最后汇总各期刊每篇论文分值,得到“期刊超越指数”,作为分区依据。

分区表升级版(试行)的优势:一是论文层级的主题体系既能体现学科交叉特点,又可以精准揭示期刊载文的多学科性;二是采用“期刊超越指数”替代影响因子指标,解决了影响因子数学性质缺陷对评价结果的干扰。整体而言,分区表升级版(试行)突破了期刊评价中学科体系构建、评价指标选择等瓶颈问题,能够更为全面地揭示学术期刊的影响力,为科研评价“去四唯”提供解决思路。相关研究成果经过国际同行的认可,已经发表在科学计量学领域国际重要期刊。

《2019年中国科学院文献情报中心期刊分区表升级版(试行)》首次将社会科学引文数据库(SSCI)期刊纳入到分区评估中。升级版分区表(试行)设置了包括自然科学和社会科学在内的18个大类学科。基础版和升级版(试行)将过渡共存三年时间,推测在此期间各大高校和科研院所仍可能会以基础版为考核参考标准。 提示:中科院分区官方微信公众号“fenqubiao”仅提供基础版数据查询,暂无升级版数据,请注意区分。
