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 ...

Mycotoxins—Biomonitoring and Human Exposure
Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites produced by fungal species that commonly have a toxic effect on human and animal health. Different foodstuff can be contaminated and are considered the major source of human exposure to mycotoxins, but occupational ...

Mycotoxins and Mycotoxin Producing Fungi in Pollen: Review [PDF]
Due to its divergent chemical composition and good nutritional properties, pollen is not only important as a potential food supplement but also as a good substrate for the development of different microorganisms. Among such microorganisms, toxigenic fungi are extremely dangerous as they can synthesize mycotoxins as a part of their metabolic pathways ...

Feedborne Mycotoxins Beauvericin and Enniatins and Livestock Animals
Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites produced by several species of fungi, including the Fusarium, Aspergillus, and Penicillium species. Currently, more than 300 structurally diverse mycotoxins are known, including a group called minor mycotoxins, namely

Development of ion trap HPLC-MS detection methods for the determination of prevalent mycotoxins in grain and application to real samples [PDF]
The prevalent trichothecenes deoxynivalenol, nivalenol and HT-2 as well as zearalenone, zearalenol, ochratoxin A and citrinin are typical widespread mycotoxins in temperate climate zones mainly produced by the genus Fusarium, Aspergillus and Penicillium.

Detoxification of Mycotoxins through Biotransformation
Mycotoxins are toxic fungal secondary metabolites that pose a major threat to the safety of food and feed. Mycotoxins are usually converted into less toxic or non-toxic metabolites through biotransformation that are often made by living organisms as well
