1 Calculated according to the equation: PDI (ng/kg bw/day) = [Mean concentration (ng/mL) × daily intake (mL)]/body weight (kg). a–d In the same row, means followed by different superscripts are significantly different (p < 0.05). AFM1: aflatoxin M1; DOM-1: de-epoxy-deoxynivalenol; OTA: ochratoxin A; FB: fumonisin; α-ZEL: α-zearalenol; β-ZEL: β-zearalenol.
