Abstract

•Occurrence of mycotoxins in cereals and cereal products.•Analytical features of relevant papers published since 2008.•Critical evaluation of sample-preparation extraction techniques.•Critical evaluation of chromatographic methods.•Advances in analysis of conjugated mycotoxins.

This article provides a review about mycotoxins occurrence in cereals and cereal foodstuffs, and analytical methods proposed for their determination from 2008 to the present. Special attention was given to recent developments in sample preparation and chromatographic approaches for mycotoxins identification/quantification. Recent information on occurrence and determination of conjugated mycotoxins was also reviewed. For the first time a review is done about mycotoxins occurrence in cereals and derived products published in the last years, together with the recent improvements regarding methods for their quantification. This review gives a good insight about the progress that has been done in the last years and points the path to further research needed.
