ABSTRACT
The process of beer production requires the use of components such as malt. Barley malt is used most often for this production. However, the seeds that are used to produce barley malt are endangered due to the permanent presence of mycotoxins. The aim of the study was to assess the concentration of mycotoxins: deoxynivalenol (DON, DON-3 Gls), ochratoxin A (OTA), and aflatoxin B1 in the barley malt that is used in two breweries in Poland. The measurements were performed on 46 samples that were collected between 2011–2015, using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), which is in compliance with the standards of the accreditation norms. The results of the measurements showed that although the highest concentration of mycotoxins was found for deoxynivalenol (DON, DON-3 Gls), it was at a level that is below the highest acceptable level (NDP). None of the concentrations of mycotoxins that were found in the barley malt used in the Polish brewing industry exceeded the NDP. The results of the study support the conclusion that the content of mycotoxins in the barley malt is a threat neither to the barley malt itself, nor to the health of the consumers of beer
