Mycotoxins & Biotoxins
Mycotoxins are toxic secondary metabolites produced by fungi. Several hundred substances are known. Biotoxins or natural plant toxins are secondary metabolic products, formed by plants to protect against herbivores by many plant species worldwide. Both mycotoxins and biotoxins can show acute or chronic toxic effects towards humans and animals even in trace level.
