Abstract

In this study, the wheat flour samples purchased from markets and shops in Erzurum were analyzed for the presence of total aflatoxin, aflatoxin $B _1$ and ocratoxin A. The analyses for the toxins were conducted on a total 50 samples. ELISA method was utilized for the detection of the toxins. As a result, it was found that AF$B _1$ was detected in 37 (74%) of the 50 samples. The amount of AFB1 detected 8 samples (16%) was higher than amount permitted by the Turkish Food Codex. It was found that AF Total was detected in 37 (74%) of the 50 samples. The amount of AF Total detected 9 samples (18 %) was higher than amount permitted by the Turkish Food Codex. It was found that ochratoxin A was detected in 45 (90%) of the 50 samples. The amount of ochratoxin A detected 6 samples (12%) was higher than amount permitted by the Turkish Food Codex. In the statistical analysis, there was positive correlation (P

Özet

Bu çalışmada Erzurum piyasasında satışa sunulan buğday unu örnekleri toplam aflatoksin, AF$B _1$ ve okratoksin A yönünden incelenmiştir.Çalışmada Erzurum yöresinden toplam 50 örnekte toplam aflatoksin, AFB1 ve okratoksin A analizi yapılmıştır. Toksin varlığının belirlenmesinde ELISA tekniği kullanılmıştır.İncelenen toplam 50 buğday unu örneğinin 37 adedinde (%74), AF$B _1$ tespit edilmiştir. Örneklerin 13 (%26) adedinde ise ölçülebilir sınırlar içerisinde AF$B _1$ belirlenememiştir. Numunelerin 8 tanesinde (%16) ise AFB1 miktarının Türk Gıda Kodeksi‟ne göre, kabul edilebilir sınırların üzerinde olduğu saptanmıştır. Örneklerin 37 (%74) adedinde toplam aflatoksin belirlenmiş ve örneklerin 13(%26) adedinde ise ölçülebilir sınırlar içerisinde toplam aflatoksin tespit edilememiştir. Örneklerin 9 tanesinde (%18) ise toplam aflatoksin miktarının Türk Gıda Kodeksi‟ne göre, kabul edilebilir sınırların üzerinde olduğu saptanmıştır. İncelen numunelerin 45 tanesinde (%90) okratoksin A tespit edilmiş, 5 (%10) adedinde ise ölçülebilir sınırlar içerisinde bu maddeye rastlanılmamıştır. Örneklerin 6 (%12.00) adedinde ise okratoksin A miktarının Türk Gıda Kodeksi‟ne göre, kabul edilebilir sınırların üzerinde olduğu saptanmıştır.Korelasyon analizi sonucu, unların toplam aflatoksin, AF$B _1$ ve okratoksin A içerikleri arasında önemli düzeyde (P
