Mycotoxins in North Carolina 1985 Crop Soybeans. I. Zearalenone and Deoxynivalenol in Soybeans and Soybean Meal

  • Chapter
Biodeterioration Research 2

Abstract

Soybean meal is the most important source of protein in animal feeds in the United States. Soybeans (Glycine max L.) and soybean meal have been perceived to be poor substrates for fungal growth. They have enjoyed the reputation of being resistant to contamination with mycotoxins, particularly aflatoxins and zearalenone (Shotwell et al., 1969; Eugenio et al., 1970), in comparison to corn, wheat, sorghum, and other feed grains. Thus, commercial soybean products have been thought to be very low in or free from fungal metabolites.
