Forty-five samples of naturally contaminated grain, barley, wheat and oats, three samples of mixed feed, and 16 samples of grain artificially inoculated with Fusarium culmorum during the flowering stage were analysed for DON, 3-acetylDON, culmorin and hydroxy-culmorins. Theamount of each of culmorin, 5-, 12-, 14- and 15-hydroxy-culmorin and one unknown hydroxy-culmorin were determined relative to the amount of DON plus 3- acetyIDON for each sample. There was a stron correlation beween t he amount of DON present in the gran and the amount fof culmorin and hdroxy-culmorins present. The ratio of each of the culmorin compounds relative to the amount of DON compounds were in the same range in the grain artificially inoculated by F. culmorum as found in an earlier study for F. culmorum strains cultivated on rice, while the hydroxy –culmorin profile in the naturally contaminated grain was more similar to that found for the F. graminearum cultures in the same study.
