preventing mycotoxins by the utilization of organic compounds and probiotic microorganism in animal feed

Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites synthesized by fungi. Contamination of feed by mycotoxins poses a significant risk to public health. Contamination may transpire throughout the food chain, resulting in numerous diseases in humans and animals, as well as economic detriment. Numerous detoxification approaches encompass physical, chemical, and biological aspects. strategies, have been developed to eradicate mycotoxins in feed. The biological technique of mycotoxin detoxification by microorganisms is dependable, effective, cost-efficient, and user-friendly in comparison to physical and chemical methods. It is essential to ascertain the toxicity of the metabolites produced during mycotoxin biodegradation. These compounds may exhibit toxicity levels that are either lower or higher than that of the parent substance. Conversely, the processes behind the biological regulation of mycotoxins remain ambiguous. This article provides an overview of the most hazardous mycotoxins and the several microorganisms and natural compounds capable of mycotoxin detoxification.
