Summary:

Twenty papers from the third meeting of the World Mycotoxin Forum, in the Netherlands in November 2005, review recent developments to combat poisonous chemical compounds produced by certain fungi that have significant consequences for the health of humans and livestock. They emphasize the impact of mycotoxins in the food and feed chain, regulatory issues in the context of international developments, emerging problems, progress in mycotoxin prevention, and trends in analysis.
