Originální abstrakt

The silymarin complex extracted from milk thistle provides significant health benefits, particularly due to its antioxidant and hepatoprotective properties. However, plant substances can be contaminated by a number of fungi types and their secondary metabolites-mycotoxins. This work deals with the determination of aflatoxins and zearalenone and its metabolites in 39 different samples grown in 2020 and 2021. Analysis of mycotoxins was performed by UHPLC-MS/MS after immunoaffinity column AFLAPREP (R) and EASI-EXTRACT (R) ZEARALENONE clean-up. The presence of aflatoxins was not confirmed in the monitored samples, but 1/3 of the samples were contaminated with zearalenone in the range of 2.8-378.9 mu g/kg. Metabolites of zearalenone such as alpha-zearalenol, alpha-zearalanol, and beta-zearalanol were not detected in any of the samples. beta-Zearalenol was found in two samples (2.6 mu g/kg and 29.8 mu g/kg).
