Mycotoxins are toxic metabolites produced by fungi that can contaminate crops, processed foods, and animal feed in some regions. This document discusses developing strategies to manage mycotoxin contamination in the semi-arid tropics, in order to enhance food safety, protect human and animal health, and prevent interactions between mycotoxins and other pathogens. It proposes an integrated strategy using genetic and natural resource management to improve food quality, safety, and control of mycotoxins in food and feed.

Mycotoxin management
- 1. Mycotoxin Management Rationale Mycotoxins are highly toxic metabolites produced by certain plant-invading fungi in several crops, processed food and feed, and even in milk and meat products (when animals are fed mycotoxin contamination in the semi-arid tropics (SAT). We focus on developing the most appropriate strategies suitable for conditions in the SAT to enhance food safety and safeguard human and animal health. Deadly Combination Aspergillus + = Hepatitis B virus estimation of mycotoxins in biomarker in human serum control (conventional & transgenics) management strategies the nutritional quality and food safety by prevention and control of mycotoxin contamination in food and feed through an Integrated Genetic and Natural Resource Management strategy”
