Diseases of man and animals associated with foodstuffs contaminated by molds have been known for centuries, but only recently have mycotoxicoses been recognized as a significant hazard to man. A detailed review of the literature involving the major mycotoxin-producing fungi is presented. Because of their hazards to both human and animal health, increasing concern has developed regarding the carcinogenic activity of aflatoxins and other mycotoxins. The symptoms of mycotoxicoses in man and experimental animals is reviewed and certain specific case histories reported. The industry is urged to implement all available techniques in order to minimize the contamination of foods by mycotoxins.
几个世纪以来，人们一直都知道人与动物的疾病与被霉菌污染的食物有关，但直到最近，霉菌毒素中毒才被认为是对人类的重大危害。本文对涉及主要产真菌毒素真菌的文献进行了详细综述。由于黄曲霉毒素和其他霉菌毒素对人类和动物健康都有危害，人们对它们的致癌活性越来越关注。本文回顾了人类和实验动物霉菌毒素中毒的症状，并报告了某些具体病例。敦促该行业采用所有可用技术，以尽量减少食品中霉菌毒素的污染。
