Plant components as a means of fighting toxigenic fungi and mycotoxins

Abstract

Mycotoxins are a major food safety concern due to their adverse health and socio-economic implications not only in the Russian Federation but worldwide. The main regulatory documents that regulate the study of feed: GOST 10852-86. Oilseeds. Acceptance rules and sampling methods; GOST 12430-66. Agricultural products. Sampling methods during quarantine inspection and examination (as amended No. 1, 2); GOST 13586.3-83. Corn. Acceptance rules and sampling methods; GOST 27668-88. Flour and bran. Acceptance and sampling methods; GOST R ISO 6497-2011. Pet food. Sample selection.After analyzing the literature data from both Russian and foreign databases, it was found that this topic on the creation of sorption complexes in the diets of farm animals is relevant for many authors and many countries.The era of green nanotechnology, with its potential to use plant phytochemicals to produce nanomaterials, has greatly improved their safety for agricultural use as mycotoxin detoxifying agents. The combination of nanotechnology and plant extracts, as well as their phytochemicals, has shown significant results in the pharmacological, agricultural and cosmetic industries. Nanoencapsulated phytochemicals have shown strong efficacy over free form due to increased surface area, protecting the encapsulated compounds from internal and external environmental conditions.
