Mycotoxin: Its Impact on Gut Health and Microbiota
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2018 The secondary metabolites produced by fungi known as mycotoxins, are capable of causing mycotoxicosis (diseases and death) in human and animals. Contamination of feedstuffs as well as food commodities by fungi occurs frequently in a natural manner and is
