Reduction in mycotoxin levels of African nutmeg (Monodora myristica) powder using a high-energy electron beam.
This study investigated the role of irradiation with a high-energy electron beam in reducing mycotoxin levels of African nutmeg powder (ANP) samples. African nutmeg was procured from a local market in Accra, Ghana, cleaned, milled, packaged and irradiated using electrons of energy 9 MeV at doses of 2, 4, 6 and 8 kGy. Un-irradiated ANP served as a control. Mycotoxin levels of the treated samples were determined using appropriate standard methods. Aflatoxins B1 (AFB1) and B2 (AFB2) as well as ochratoxin A (OTA) were detected in the nutmeg samples. Irradiation significantly (p < 0.05) reduced mycotoxin levels of the ANP with increasing doses. Aflatoxins G1 and G2 were not detected in any of the samples. A dose of 8 kGy was effective in reducing the mycotoxin levels below the permissible limit in food. This suggests that a high-energy electron beam is effective in reducing mycotoxin levels in African nutmeg powder.
期刊介绍：
Food Additives & Contaminants: Part A publishes original research papers and critical reviews covering analytical methodology, occurrence, persistence, safety evaluation, detoxification and regulatory control of natural and man-made additives and contaminants in the food and animal feed chain. Papers are published in the areas of food additives including flavourings, pesticide and veterinary drug residues, environmental contaminants, plant toxins, mycotoxins, marine biotoxins, trace elements, migration from food packaging, food process contaminants, adulteration, authenticity and allergenicity of foods. Papers are published on animal feed where residues and contaminants can give rise to food safety concerns. Contributions cover chemistry, biochemistry and bioavailability of these substances, factors affecting levels during production, processing, packaging and storage; the development of novel foods and processes; exposure and risk assessment.
