Among the xenobiotics contaminating agricultural crops, fungi and mycotoxins are the most challenging since their presence represents an economic burden due to crop loss and serious health effects related to animals and humans with severe repercussions. This study intends to characterize the fungal and mycotoxin contamination in tea available in the Portuguese market and in coffee from two Brazilian industries.engEnvironmental healthFungal assessmentFungiMycotoxinsTeaCoffee beansPortugalBrasilFCT_UIDP/05608/2020FCT_UIDB/05608/2020IPL/2022/InChildhealth/BI/12MIPL/IDI&CA2023/FoodAIIEU_ESTeSLIPL/IDI&CA2023/ASPRisk_ESTeSLIPL/IDI&CA2023/ARAFSawmills_ESTeSLconference object
