Assessment of Human Exposure to Five <i>Alternaria</i> Mycotoxins in China by Biomonitoring Approach
This biomonitoring study was conducted to investigate the concentration levels of five <i>Alternaria</i> mycotoxins in urine samples from 269 healthy volunteers living in the Yangtze River Delta, China. Alternariol (AOH), alternariol monomethyl ether (AME), tenuazonic acid (TeA) and tent...
