Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The consumption of foods contaminated with mycotoxins can lead to adverse health effects. In support of consumer safety, the analysis of mycotoxins is an essential part of regulatory monitoring and surveillance programs. In reality, continuous efforts are still required to improve existing sampling plans, data quality, analytical technologies, and risk assessments. This Special Issue aims to provide a platform for researchers from different countries to share their perspectives, outline challenges, and explore future mycotoxin research directions from their own specific areas.
This Special Issue will comprise original research papers, concise opinion pieces, and comprehensive reviews to help readers keep abreast of the advances, trends, and challenges related to mycotoxin analysis. We hope that this Special Issue will generate interest, discussion, and collaboration opportunities within the international mycotoxin community.
