Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The ubiquitous presence of mycotoxins in food and feed presents an ongoing challenge to global health and agricultural economies. Addressing these challenges requires a comprehensive understanding of the diverse mycotoxin types, their occurrence, and innovative analytical strategies.
This Special Issue on the potential risks and analytical challenges of mycotoxins in food and feed aims to explore the critical aspects of mycotoxin contamination in food and feed, focusing on the associated risks and analytical hurdles. It will shed light on the latest advancements in mycotoxin detection, mitigation, and regulatory efforts, and bridge the gap between scientific insights and practical applications.
I invite you to submit your research. Submitted manuscripts may include original research articles, reviews, and concise communications investigating mycotoxin detection, impact, and countermeasures that can help foster collaboration and knowledge exchange, and generate transformative insights for safer food and feed systems.
Dr. Anindya Chanda
Guest Editor
