Updated Review of the Toxicity of Selected <i>Fusarium</i> Toxins and Their Modified Forms

Mycotoxins are one of the most dangerous food and feed contaminants, hence they have significant influence on human and animal health. This study reviews the information reported over the last few years on the toxic effects of the most relevant and studied <i>Fusarium</i> toxins and thei...
