DISCLAIMERBIOMIN GmbH and the authors had no infl uence on the sampling process of the investigated samples. Therefore, the contamination levels found in the samples do not necessarily refl ect the actual contamination level of these regions/commodities. However, the samples provide more insight into the range and levels of mycotoxins which can be found in diverse commodities of various regions.Mycofi x® is not available in the US and Canada.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTSSpecial thanks go to Biofarma Feedlab, Argentina, Labocea, France, LAMIC, Brazil and Dr. Anika Steinhoff - Ooster, Tiergesundheitsdienst Bayern e.V. for sharing their mycotoxin analysis results as part of this survey.
