EFSA’s risk assessments of mycotoxins. Interview with Dr. Bruce Cottrill, Member of the CONTAM Panel

I know that in many poultry farms mycosorbents added to feed and that's why they didn't need to measure mycotoxins content, also it is a very small potential risk for human

It would be better not to feed the chicken with mycotoxin-feed in the first place rather than adding mycosorbents and assume that the meat is safe. Trying to make the food chain free of mycotoxin should be our goal.

detoxification of mycotoxins through chemical, physical and biological processes are recommended. this will help to deactivate ,destrioy and remove the toxins and at the sametime ensure the nutrient value of the feed is intact. Destruction of fungal spores suspected to be the source of these mycotoxins would be useful

Over the past 10-15 years, the number of scientific publications on the binding of mycotoxins has sharply decreased. Apparently, science has stopped before the next stage of its development. A lot of commercial advertising, in which sellers promise a lot - just buy from me. Often misinformed farmers are misled. There are no adsorbents that would bind at least 15 to 20 of the known 300 mycotoxins. Some mycotoxins are always absorbed and no methods have been developed to prevent the action of absorbed mycotoxins in the body and reduce their retention in the body. I got the first laboratory results in this direction
