Heavy metals and mycotoxins in foodstuffs are one of the major concerns of our world nowadays. Food decontamination with the help of microbial biomass is a cheap, easy, efficient and green method known as bioremoval. Probiotics are able to reduce the availability of heavy metals and toxins in food products. The purpose of this review is to summarize the probiotics and potential probiotics' interesting role in food bio-decontamination. After a brief glance at the definition of potential probiotic strains with bioremoval ability, LABs (lactic acid bacteria) are described as they are the most important groups of probiotics. After that, the role of the main probiotic and potential probiotic strains (Bacillus, Lactobacillus, Lactococcus, Enterococcus, Bifidobacterium, Pediococcus, Propionibacterium, Streptococcus and Saccharomyces cerevisiae) for heavy metals and mycotoxins bioremoval are described. Additionally, the bioremoval mechanism and the effect of some factors in bioremoval efficiency are explained. Finally, the investigations about probiotic and contaminant stability are mentioned. It is worth mentioning that this review article can be exerted in different food and beverage industries to eliminate the heavy metals and mycotoxins in foodstuffs.
食品中的重金属和霉菌毒素是当今世界关注的主要问题之一。利用微生物生物量进行食品去污是一种廉价、简单、高效和绿色的方法，称为生物去除。益生菌能够减少食品中重金属和毒素的有效性。本综述的目的是总结益生菌和潜在益生菌在食品生物净化中的作用。在简要回顾了具有生物去除能力的潜在益生菌菌株的定义之后，描述了 LAB（乳酸菌），因为它们是最重要的益生菌群体。之后，描述了主要益生菌和潜在益生菌菌株（芽孢杆菌、乳杆菌、乳球菌、肠球菌、双歧杆菌、戊糖片球菌、丙酸杆菌、链球菌和酿酒酵母）对重金属和霉菌毒素生物去除的作用。此外，还解释了生物去除效率的一些因素的生物去除机制和影响。最后，提到了益生菌和污染物稳定性的研究。值得一提的是，这篇综述文章可以应用于不同的食品和饮料行业，以消除食品中的重金属和霉菌毒素。
