Abstract
Globally, mycotoxins in food and feed are serious threats to the health of human and animals. Food safety in China has gained increasing attentions from consumers, producers, researchers and policymakers. Previous reviews on mycotoxin contamination in China mainly focused on the occurrence of aflatoxins, fumonisins, deoxynivalenol, zearalenone, and ochratoxins, while many recent surveys have also confirmed the prevalence of other mycotoxins such as emerging fusarium mycotoxins, type A trichothecenes, and alternaria toxins, etc. This review aims to present a wider and up-to-date overview of the mycotoxins occurrence in feed and food in China in the period 2006-2017. Furthermore, the popular methods for mycotoxin determination, the toxicological effects of the major mycotoxins, as well as recent advances in detoxification and decontamination strategies, were also highlighted.
