Food Safety Action Plan report : 2011-2012 targeted surveys - chemistry : ochratoxin A in selected foods.: A104-558/2012E-PDF
"This targeted survey focussed on the natural toxin, ochratoxin A (OTA), which can contaminate grains during grain storage. As OTA is heat-stable, if present, finished foods may still contain detectable levels of OTA despite being substantially processed. OTA has been classified as a possible human carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer. The main objectives of this survey were to: establish baseline surveillance data for OTA levels in infant formula, beer, dried fruit, soy products, and grain-based products (wheat products, corn products, oat products, milled products of less commonly consumed grains, infant cereals, breakfast cereals, breads, baked goods and crackers)"--Executive summary, page 2.
