Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites produced by fungal species that commonly have a toxic effect on human and animal health. Different foodstuff can be contaminated and are considered the major source of human exposure to mycotoxins, but occupational and environmental exposure can also significantly contribute to this problem. This review aims to provide a short overview of the occurrence of toxigenic fungi and regulated mycotoxins in foods and workplaces, following the current literature and data presented in scientific papers. Biomonitoring of mycotoxins in plasma, serum, urine, and blood samples has become a common method for determining the exposure to different mycotoxins. Novel techniques are more and more precise and accurate and are aiming toward the simultaneous determination of multiple mycotoxins in one analysis. Application of liquid chromatography (LC) methodologies, coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) or high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) has become a common and most reliable method for determining the exposure to mycotoxins. Numerous references confirm the importance of mycotoxin biomonitoring to assess the exposure for humans and animals. The objectives of this paper were to review the general approaches to biomonitoring of different mycotoxins and the occurrence of toxigenic fungi and their mycotoxins, using recent literature sources.
真菌毒素是真菌产生的次生代谢物,通常对人类和动物健康具有毒性作用。不同的食品可能会受到污染,被认为是人类接触真菌毒素的主要来源,但职业和环境暴露也可能对这一问题产生重大影响。本综述旨在根据当前文献和科学论文中呈现的数据,简要概述食品和工作场所中产毒真菌和受监管真菌毒素的发生情况。在血浆、血清、尿液和血液样本中对真菌毒素进行生物监测已成为确定接触不同真菌毒素的常用方法。新的技术越来越精确和准确,旨在一次分析中同时测定多种真菌毒素。液相色谱 (LC) 方法与串联质谱 (MS/MS) 或高分辨率质谱 (HRMS) 联用已成为测定真菌毒素接触情况的常用且最可靠方法。大量参考文献证实了真菌毒素生物监测对评估人类和动物接触情况的重要性。本文的目的是综述使用最近的文献来源,探讨不同真菌毒素和产毒真菌及其真菌毒素的生物监测的一般方法。
