Biomin, the global leader in mycotoxin deactivation, has recently announced its involvement in a three year, nearly US$1 million project to tackle mycotoxin-related food safety issues in sub-Saharan Africa.
The MycoSafe-South project aims to identify safe-use options for aflatoxins- and fumonisins-contaminated food and feed, to reduce human exposure to fungi-produced mycotoxins from animal protein sources, and to promote education and awareness efforts to understand mycotoxin-associated health risks in humans and animals. The research outcomes focus on human and infrastructural capacity building, and awareness building through on-site training of community, nutritionists, veterinarians, small-scale subsistence farmers and commercial farmers.
