Food Safety Action Plan report : 2011-2012 targeted surveys - chemistry : deoxynivalenol in selected foods.: A104-549/2012E-PDF
"This targeted survey focussed on a natural toxin, deoxynivalenol (DON), which can contaminate grains in the field. DON is not carcinogenic, but exposure to very high levels may cause immunosuppressive and gastrointestinal effects. As DON is resistant to heat, finished foods may still contain detectable levels of DON despite being substantially processed"--Executive summary, page 2.
