Abstract
⺠The quantification and validation of fumonisins was performed by HPLC/fluorescence and postcolumn OPA derivatisation. ⺠We evaluate the presence of fumonisins in Brazilian corn-base food products. ⺠We realized the assessment of exposure for fumonisins. ⺠The APDI and MPDI of fumonisins estimated for the Brazilian population were below the PMTDI. ⺠Results indicate that the need for monitoring these foods to minimise the risk of developing oesophageal cancer.
