Abstract

The trichothecene, vomitoxin, was found in two Austrian corn samples at levels of 1.3 and 7.9 ppm and in one Canadian corn sample at a level of 7.9 ppm; all three corn samples were rejected when fed to swine. Feed made from the latter corn sample contained 1.4 ppm vomitoxin. Kernels from these corn samples were examined for Fusarium graminearum. The mold was found only in the two Austrian corn samples, and four of the isolates produced vomitoxin at levels ranging from 3.7 to 16.7 ppm.
