Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Enzyme
  • Biochemistry

His primary scientific interests are in Fumonisin, Mycotoxin, Fusarium, Chromatography and Veterinary medicine. His Fumonisin research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Ingestion, Urine, Fumonisin B1 and Animal science. In the field of Food science and Biotechnology Gordon S. Shephard studies Mycotoxin.

His Biotechnology research includes themes of Food processing and Environmental health. His work deals with themes such as Phytotoxin, Zea mays, Agronomy and Fungi imperfecti, which intersect with Fusarium. His study in the field of Liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry, Selected reaction monitoring, Repeatability and Analyte is also linked to topics like Multicenter study.

His most cited work include:

  • Natural occurrence of some Fusarium mycotoxins in corn from low and high esophageal cancer prevalence areas of the Transkei, Southern Africa (402 citations)
  • Worldwide Survey of Fumonisin Contamination of Corn and Corn-Based Products (378 citations)
  • Workgroup Report: Public Health Strategies for Reducing Aflatoxin Exposure in Developing Countries (322 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Gordon S. Shephard focuses on Mycotoxin, Fumonisin, Chromatography, Fusarium and Food science. The Mycotoxin study combines topics in areas such as Toxicology and Aflatoxin. Gordon S. Shephard has researched Aflatoxin in several fields, including Food contaminant and Aspergillus flavus.

His study in Fumonisin is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Agronomy, Fumonisin B1, Veterinary medicine, Urine and Animal science. Gordon S. Shephard interconnects Zea mays and Fungi imperfecti in the investigation of issues within Fusarium. Within one scientific family, he focuses on topics pertaining to Food safety under Biotechnology, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Environmental health and Public health.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Mycotoxin (56.82%)
  • Fumonisin (51.14%)
  • Chromatography (27.27%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Mycotoxin (56.82%)
  • Fumonisin (51.14%)
  • Subsistence agriculture (7.95%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Gordon S. Shephard spends much of his time researching Mycotoxin, Fumonisin, Subsistence agriculture, Aflatoxin and Biotechnology. His work carried out in the field of Mycotoxin brings together such families of science as Food safety, Toxicology, Agronomy and Fusarium. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Tolerable daily intake and Environmental health.

His Aflatoxin research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Patulin and Food contaminant. The Food contaminant study which covers Veterinary medicine that intersects with Fumonisin B1. His Biotechnology course of study focuses on Critical control point and Hazard and Pistachio Nuts.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Multiple mycotoxin exposure determined by urinary biomarkers in rural subsistence farmers in the former Transkei, South Africa (102 citations)
  • Mycotoxin contamination of foods in Southern Africa: A 10-year review (2007–2016) (60 citations)
  • Developments in mycotoxin analysis: an update for 2011-2012 (49 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Internal medicine
  • Biochemistry
  • Enzyme

His primary areas of study are Mycotoxin, Aflatoxin, Zearalenone, Fumonisin and Biotechnology. His studies deal with areas such as Agronomy and Food contaminant as well as Mycotoxin. His studies in Food contaminant integrate themes in fields like Veterinary medicine, Productivity, Environmental chemistry and Fumonisin B1.

His Zearalenone research incorporates elements of Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives, Ochratoxin A, Urine, Creatinine and Animal science. His Biotechnology research includes elements of Hazard and Critical control point. His Patulin research incorporates themes from Fusarium, Trichothecene, Public health and Environmental health.
