The presence of fungi was investigated in 22 samples of different dried plant origin products used for the preparation of muesli (grain products, dried fruit, nuts, oilseeds) using three media. The determined contamination levels were between 0.6% (grain products) and 46.4% (raisins). The xerotolerant Aspergillus, Penicillium and Eurotium species, mostly toxigenic, and fungi from Rhizopus genera, were the most frequent in the investigated samples. Aflatoxin B1 (AB1) was not detected in any sample, while aflatoxin G1 (AG1) was found in one almond sample (0.14 microgram/kg). Two almond samples were contaminated with ochratoxin A (OA), 8.00 and 16.00 microgram/kg, and one sunflower seed sample had it in traces. Zearalenone was found in two sunflower seed samples (120.00 and 200.00 microgram/kg).
