Zusammenfassung: | Micotoxins are toxic secondary metabolites that have no biochemical significance in fugal growth and development. Recommendations for micotoxin control include constant monitoring by a program of harvest samples and micotoxin analysis. A total of 436 samples were analyzed from May 1997 to March 2001 to detect the following micotoxins: aflatoxins B1, B2, G1 and G2, zearalenona and ocratoxina A. The thin layer chromatography technique was used (CCD). Most of the analyses performed were of maize grains and silage, 273 samples, representing 62.6% of the total (436) and this number may be linked to the type of animal production, Holstein cows, that most use this type of food, as most of the samples came from dairy farms in the north of Paran state. Zearalenona was the most detected micotoxin with 57.5% positive samples representing 28% of all the substrates. The aflatoxin represented 36.3% of the total of positive samples and 17.7% in the substrates. When the number of samples received for analysis and positiveness are correlated, it was observed that there was a greater occurrence of positive analyses in the summer and autumn, 64.3% and 73.5%, respectively. The results obtained reflect the type of animal production in this region and the climatic phenomena that occurred 1997-2001 such as heavy rainfall and abrupt temperature variations that eased fungus development and consequently the appearance of micotoxins.As micotoxinas são metabólitos secundários tóxicos que não têm significado bioquímico no crescimento e desenvolvimento fúngico. Entre as recomendações para controle de micotoxinas está o monitoramento constante, por meio de um programa de colheita de amostras e análises das micotoxinas. Analisaram-se 436 amostras no período de maio/1997 a março de 2001 para detecção das seguintes micotoxinas: aflatoxinas B1, B2, G1 e G2, zearalenona e ocratoxina A. Utilizou-se a técnica de Cromatografia em Camada Delgada (CCD). Verificou-se que, a maioria das análises efetuada foi de grãos e silagem de milho, 273 amostras, representando 62,6% do total (436), este número pode estar ligado ao tipo de produção animal, vacas holandesas, que mais utilizam este tipo de alimentação, já que a maioria das amostras foi proveniente de propriedades leiteiras da região norte do Paraná. Observou-se que a micotoxina mais detectada foi a zearalenona com 57,5% de amostras positivas e representando 28% do total de substratos. As aflatoxinas representaram 36,3%, no total de amostras positi |
