Prevalence and concentration of Ochratoxin A in beer: A global systematic review, meta‐analysis, and health risk assessment

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 12, Issue 11, Page 8503-8514, November 2024.
In the current study, levels and prevalence of Ochratoxin A (OTA) in beer were meta‐analyzed and non‐carcinogenic risk was calculated by the target hazard quotient. Thirty papers with 70 data reports were included in our study. The pooled prevalence of OTA was 50.60%, 95% CI (confidence interval) (36.97–64.19). Five countries with the highest levels of
