Combination of Anti-Mycotoxin Additive in Diet Contaminated with Multiple Mycotoxins (Aflatoxin, Fumonisin, Zearalenone and Deoxynivalenol): Effects on Performance and Health of Lambs [PDF]

open access: yesAnimals
During the grain and cereal production process, whether during harvesting, processing, or storage, errors can occur, compromising product quality and potentially leading to contamination by fungi, which produce toxic substances known as mycotoxins.

The Role of Mycotoxins in Interactions between Fusarium graminearum and F. verticillioides Growing in Saprophytic Cultures and Co-Infecting Maize Plants

open access: yesToxins, 2023
Fusarium graminearum (FG) and Fusarium verticillioides (FV) co-occur in infected plants and plant residues. In maize ears, the growth of FV is stimulated while FG is suppressed.

Improved normalization of species count data in ecology by scaling with ranked subsampling (SRS): application to microbial communities [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2020
Background Analysis of species count data in ecology often requires normalization to an identical sample size. Rarefying (random subsampling without replacement), which is the current standard method for normalization, has been widely criticized for its ...

Invited review: Remediation strategies for mycotoxin control in feed

open access: yesJournal of Animal Science and Biotechnology, 2022
Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites of different species of fungi. Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), deoxynivalenol (DON), zearalenone (ZEN) and fumonisin B1 (FB1) are the main mycotoxins contaminating animal feedstuffs.

Mycotoxins [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Microbiology Reviews, 2003
SUMMARYMycotoxins are secondary metabolites produced by microfungi that are capable of causing disease and death in humans and other animals. Because of their pharmacological activity, some mycotoxins or mycotoxin derivatives have found use as antibiotics, growth promotants, and other kinds of drugs; still others have been implicated as chemical ...

Mycotoxin Regulatory Status in Africa: A Decade of Weak Institutional Efforts

open access: yesToxins, 2022
Food safety problems are a major hindrance to achieving food security, trade, and healthy living in Africa. Fungi and their secondary metabolites, known as mycotoxins, represent an important concern in this regard. Attempts such as agricultural, storage,
