Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Following on from the first Special Issue, this Special Issue, “Metabolism and Toxicology of Mycotoxins and Their Masked Forms: 2nd Edition”, will continue to focus on the most recent research on the development of metabolic transformation mechanisms and toxicity of masked mycotoxins and to propose new strategies for evaluation and/or reducing mycotoxin contamination.
In this Special Issue, we welcome all submissions related to the following topics: (1) the metabolic transformation mechanism of mycotoxins, especially masked mycotoxins, and work implementing an omics approach to understanding the mechanism; (2) in vitro and in vivo toxicology and the metabolics of emerging or masked mycotoxins; and (3) the accurate evaluation of the interactive toxic effects of mycotoxins and/or their masked forms on humans or animals.
