Abstract

The daily dietary intakes of ochratoxin A (OTA) were estimated for 28 school-children at the age of seven and eight years using duplicate portions of the total diets collected on three successive days. For most children and collection days the dietary OTA intakes were below the PTDI-value of 5 ng/kg bw/day. The mean dietary intake was 1.52 ng/kg bw/day for all children. According to sex the mean intakes were 1.21 ng/kg bw/day for boys and 1.83 ng/kg bw/day for girls.
