Mycotoxins are a type of food safety hazard that can occur when certain fungi contaminate food. These toxins can cause a range of health problems, including cancer, liver damage, and reproductive issues. Mycotoxins can be found in a variety of food products, including grains, nuts, fruits, and vegetables. They can also be found in animal feed, which can lead to contamination of meat and dairy products. Mycotoxin contamination is a major concern for food safety, as it can lead to serious health issues. To reduce the risk of contamination, food producers must take steps to prevent the growth of fungi in their products. This includes proper storage and handling of food, as well as regular testing for mycotoxins. There are a number of companies that specialize in mycotoxin testing and prevention. These include Eurofins, SGS, Intertek, and ALS Global. These companies provide testing services, as well as advice on how to reduce the risk of mycotoxin contamination. Show Less Read more
