The latest edition of the DSM-Firmenich global mycotoxin survey (World Mycotoxin Survey) for January-December 2023 is now available, covering 95 countries and 113,558 analyses. In 61% of samples, multiple mycotoxins were detected, with particularly high risks observed in Europe and Eastern Europe, including ZEARALENONE, DEOXYNIVALENOL, FUMONISIN, and T-2. A comparison with the 2022 survey shows a significant increase in contamination across all major mycotoxins.
