| Abstract | ||
| Mycotoxins pose a persistent threat to food security, animal productivity, and public health, particularly in countries with diverse climates, agricultural intensification, and complex supply chains such as China. The primary purpose of this study is to investigate and critically evaluate effective strategies for mitigating mycotoxin contamination in selected food and animal feed commodities within the agricultural context of China. Mycotoxins are being toxic secondary metabolites produced by fungal genera such as Aspergillus, Fusarium, and Penicillium are pose a significant and persistent threat to food safety, animal health, and public health globally. This is particularly relevant in China, where diverse agroclimatic conditions, rapid industrialization of the livestock sector, and variable post-harvest practices have heightened the risk of contamination. Therefore, the overarching aim of this study is to investigate and evaluate effective biological strategies for reducing mycotoxin contamination in selected foodstuffs and animal feed in China. | ||
