List of Publications by Department for the Academic Year Editorial: Risk assessment of mycotoxins in food
Abstract
Mycotoxins are natural food and feed contaminants produced as secondary metabolites of filamentous fungi with known toxic and carcinogenic effects.
Food crops are prone to fungal contamination in the pre-harvest and at storage, especially during poor agricultural and storage practices (1). Therefore, the risk of contamination with mycotoxins can occur during cultivation, processing, transportation, or storage (2).
