FOOD PRODUCT CONTAMINATION RISKS AT DIFFERENT STAGES OF PRODUCTION by O. I. Lavrukhina, V. G. Amelin, L. B. Prokhvatilova, O. I. Ruchnova

“…Feed can be a potential source of contamination of raw materials and animal food products as a result of bioaccumulation and transfer of toxic agents and their metabolites to meat, offal, milk and eggs. Total risk for humans will be determined basing not only on consumption of plant products containing toxins, but also on secondary contaminants (toxins and their metabolites) getting in to the body with food products and animal raw materials.…”
