Description
The multidisciplinary nature of investigations on mycotoxins and phycotoxins is reflected by the wide range of subjects covered by the 57 invited papers in this volume focusing on ecology, analysis, epidemiology, pharmacology, toxicology, chemistry, intoxication and regulation. They provide up-to-date information on the remarkable progress made in research into mycotoxins as food and feed contaminants, and in marine toxins which has led to the establishment of a new field of study in the area of phycotoxins with their unique structures and diverse biological activities.
