“…Furthermore, as the concentration of AFB 1 increased, more malformed adult (wings, leg and thorax) individuals of D. melanogaster were observed. Exposure to 800 µg/kg AFB 1 resulted in 11% malformation as opposed to 7% for larvae exposed to 200 µg/kg AFB 1 (Şişman 2006 ). Furthermore, feeding D. melanogaster (strain Oregon R) with 10,000 µg/kg AFB 1 resulted in a doubling of larval and pupal development time (Kirk et al 1971 ).…”

A systematic literature review on the effects of mycotoxin exposure on insects and on mycotoxin accumulation and biotransformation

Novel protein sources for animal feed are needed, and the use of insects as feed ingredient is explored. The insect production sector offers opportunities for a circular and sustainable approach to feed production by upgrading waste or side streams into high-quality proteins. However, potential food or feed safety issues should be studied in advance. Mycotoxins, such as aflatoxin B1, are natural contaminants commonly found in agricultural crops and have proven to be detrimental to the agricultural industry, livestock, and human health. This systematic review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the published evidence on effects of mycotoxin exposure on insect growth and survival, mycotoxin accumulation within the insect body, and metabolization of various mycotoxins by insects. The review includes 54 scientific articles published in the past 55 years, in total covering 32 insect species. The main findings are the following: (1) Insects of the order Coleoptera show lower mortality after exposure to aflatoxin B1 when compared to Lepidoptera and Diptera; (2) effects of mycotoxins on larval growth and survival are less detrimental in later larval stages; (3) accumulation of mycotoxins was low in most insect species; (4) mycotoxins are metabolized within the insect body, the degree of which depends on the particular mycotoxin and insect species; (5) cytochrome P450s are the main family of enzymes involved in biotransformation of mycotoxins in some insect species. Results of this review support an optimistic outlook for the use of mycotoxin-contaminated waste streams as substrate for insect rearing.

“…Chemical adsorbents such as propylthiol-functionalized SBA-15 silica [ 160 ], magnetic carbon nanotubes (Fe 3 O 4 − MWCNTs adsorbent) [ 161 ], and sulfhydryl-terminated magnetic bead separation [ 162 ] are more often used. Hydrated sodium calcium aluminosilicates (HSCASs), obtained from natural aeolite are the most commonly used clay-based adsorbents [ 163 ]. These adsorbents include clay, cholestyramine, esterified glucomannan, activated charcoal, and other modified polymers, and they absorb OTA, AFB1, ZEN, DON, FB1, and T-2 toxin in the range of 17% to 100% in liquid environments.…”

Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites of filamentous fungi that contaminate food products such as fruits, vegetables, cereals, beverages, and other agricultural commodities. Their occurrence in the food chain, especially in beverages, can pose a serious risk to human health, due to their toxicity, even at low concentrations. Mycotoxins, such as aflatoxins (AFs), ochratoxin A (OTA), patulin (PAT), fumonisins (FBs), trichothecenes (TCs), zearalenone (ZEN), and the alternaria toxins including alternariol, altenuene, and alternariol methyl ether have largely been identified in fruits and their derived products, such as beverages and drinks. The presence of mycotoxins in beverages is of high concern in some cases due to their levels being higher than the limits set by regulations. This review aims to summarize the toxicity of the major mycotoxins that occur in beverages, the methods available for their detection and quantification, and the strategies for their control. In addition, some novel techniques for controlling mycotoxins in the postharvest stage are highlighted.
