Aflatoxins are a class of carcinogenic mycotoxins produced by Aspergillus fungi and are
known to contaminate a large portion of the world's food supply. Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is the …

Mycotoxins are well established toxic metabolic entities produced when fungi invade
agricultural/farm produce, and this happens especially when the conditions are favourable …

Aflatoxins are fungal metabolites found in feeds and foods. When the ruminants eat
feedstuffs containing Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), this toxin is metabolized and Aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) …

EFSA was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the risks to public health related to the
presence of aflatoxins in food. The risk assessment was confined to aflatoxin B1 (AFB 1) …

Abstract The European Commission asked EFSA to update their 2006 opinion on ochratoxin
A (OTA) in food. OTA is produced by fungi of the genus Aspergillus and Penicillium and …

In recent years, there has been an increasing interest in investigating the carcinogenicity of
mycotoxins in humans. This systematic review aims to provide an overview of data linking …

Animal models are commonly used in the preclinical development of new drugs to predict
the metabolic behaviour of new compounds in humans. It is, however, important to realise …

Pharmacogenetics is the study of how interindividual variations in the DNA sequence of
specific genes affect drug response. This article highlights current pharmacogenetic …

Abstract Aflatoxin B 1 (AFB 1) widely contaminates staple food and feed crops and is well-
known as the most potent natural hepatocarcinogen in humans and domesticated animals …

The merging of three-dimensional in vitro models with multi-organ-on-a-chip (MOC)
technology has taken in vitro assessment of chemicals to an unprecedented level. By …
