Abstract:
Mycotoxins can be defined as toxic secondary metabolites that are formed and released by many fungal species, which widely exist in agricultural products and their by-products, resulting thus in a serious threat to human and animal health. In recent years, the removal of mycotoxins has been extensively investigated in the literature. This work mainly focuses on the research progress of the pollution characteristics, limit standards and removal technologies of mycotoxins. The research progress of fungus physical adsorption detoxification technology based on graphene, metal organic framework and magnetic nanomaterial adsorbent is systematically summarized, especially. The development of new types of functional nanomaterials with enhanced properties is undoubted of great importance for mycotoxin prevention applications by using physical adsorption technology.
