Two physical methods for the decontamination of four cereals contaminated with deoxynivalenol and zearalenone

The distribution of DON and ZEN in fractions of differing particule size from coarsely ground barley, wheat, and corn was investigated. The effect of dehulling barley, by floating off the hulls, on the concentration and hence distribution of DON and ZEN in these fraction was also investigated. The effect of dehulling barley, wheat, and rye by using a commercial Scott-Strong dehuller on the concentration of DON and ZEN in the outer and inner portions of the kernel was investigated.
