Abstract
- Reliable prediction of the risk of mycotoxin contamination in post-harvest wheat will aid in improvement of the quality and safety. To establish the relationship between Fusarium pseudograminearum mycotoxins and CO <subscript>2</subscript> production, changes in their respective concentrations were monitored for the artificial contamination of wheat under different values of water activities (0.84 a <subscript>w</subscript> , 0.92 a <subscript>w</subscript> , and 0.97 a <subscript>w</subscript> ) and temperatures (20 ℃, 25 ℃, and 30 ℃). Water activity played a significant role in all these processes. CO <subscript>2</subscript> concentration together with moisture content and temperature were used as the main parameters to establish DON and ZEN contamination prediction models. The prediction accuracy for DON was 98.15 % (R <superscript>2</superscript>  = 0.990) and 90.74 % for ZEN (R <superscript>2</superscript>  = 0.982). These models were combined with T/RH/MC/CO <subscript>2</subscript> multi-parameter integrated sensors to form an early warning system, which offers a great prospect to minimise the risk of DON/ZEN contamination in post-harvest wheat.<br />Competing Interests: The authors declare that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper.<br /> (© 2022 The Author(s).)
