title: Microbial binding and biodegradation of mycotoxins.
abstract: This contribution provides an overview of literature data on the microbial binding and biodegradation of mycotoxins. These data and preliminary results from our own laboratory suggest that mycotoxin-bacterial binding or biodegradation is a realistic process and encourages the screening of bacterial strains and their biodegradation potential.
