Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a highly toxic mycotoxin and poses great threat to human health. Due to its serious toxicity and widespread contamination, great efforts have been made to evaluate its human exposure. This review focuses on the OTA occurrence and contamination level in nine plant and animal derived food commodities: cereal, wine, coffee, beer, cocoa, dried fruit, spice, meat, and milk. The occurrence and contamination level varied greatly in food commodities and were affected by many factors, including spices, geography, climate, and storage conditions. Therefore, risk monitoring must be routinely implemented to ensure minimal OTA intake and food safety.
赭曲霉毒素 A(OTA)是一种毒性很强的真菌毒素,对人类健康构成了巨大威胁。由于其毒性严重且广泛污染,人们已经做出了巨大努力来评估其人体暴露情况。本综述重点关注了九种植物和动物源性食品中的 OTA 发生和污染水平:谷物、葡萄酒、咖啡、啤酒、可可、干果、香料、肉类和牛奶。食品中的发生和污染水平差异很大,受到许多因素的影响,包括香料、地理位置、气候和储存条件。因此,必须定期进行风险监测,以确保最小的 OTA 摄入量和食品安全。
