abstract = {A comprehensive definition introducing the term 'modified
mycotoxins' to encompass all possible forms in which
mycotoxins and their modifications can occur was recently
proposed and has rapidly gained wide acceptance within the
scientific community. It is becoming increasingly evident
that exposure to such modified mycotoxins due to their
presence in food and feed has the potential to pose a
substantial additional risk to human and animal health.
Zearalenone (ZEN) is a well-characterized Fusarium toxin.
Considering the diversity of modified forms of ZEN occurring
in food and feed, the toxicologically relevant endocrine
activity of many of these metabolites, and the fact that
modified forms add to a dietary exposure which approaches
the tolerable daily intake by free ZEN alone, modified forms
of ZEN present an ideal case study for critical evaluation
of modified mycotoxins in food safety. Following a summary
of recent scientific opinions of EFSA dealing with health
risk assessment of ZEN alone or in combination with its
modified forms, uncertainties and data gaps are highlighted.
Issues essential for evaluation and prioritization of
modified mycotoxins in health risk assessment are identified
and discussed, including opportunities to improve exposure
assessment using biomonitoring data. Further issues such as
future consideration of combinatory effects of the parent
toxin with its modified forms and also other compounds
co-occurring in food and feed are addressed. With a
particular focus on ZEN, the most pressing challenges
associated with health risk assessment of modified
mycotoxins are identified and recommendations for further
research to fill data gaps and reduce uncertainties are
made.},
