Abstract:The consumption of mycotoxins generated by fungi can have severe effects on the health of both humans and animals. These toxins can exist at dangerous levels in food products made from crops that have been infected with mycotoxinproducing fungi. Numerous methods have been developed for detecting mycotoxins in order to divert contaminated commodities from the food supply, but only allow for reactive, not preventive approaches. Furthermore, under favorable conditions toxin-producing fungi can continue to produce… Show more
