Abstract
The greatest dangerous trichothecene generated through Fusarium spp., mainly F. sporotrichioides, is T-2 toxin. T-2 toxin is an environmental pollutant that really can cause a considerable illnesses and even death in humans and animals. It can be found in a range of farm products. The goal of the current study was to use high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to analyze T-2 mycotoxin in cereal samples that contained (≥1ppm). This is Iraq's first HPLC-based T-2 toxin analysis investigation. Baghdad City's local markets took a total of 20 commonly produced cereal product tests and rated them. T-2 toxin presented for 40% of cereal products, with the greatest amount identified in a sample of flour corn was 1.9 ppm. In comparison with the volume of produced specimens, the incidence of toxin-contaminated specimens is not very low.
