Aflatoxin and Food Safety (eBook, ePUB)

Redaktion: Abbas, Hamed K.

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Written by international experts, this book provides a comprehensive picture of the state-of-the-art in aflatoxin research and control. It considers the worldwide impact of aflatoxins and describes recent advances in research on aflatoxin production, analysis, and toxicology. The text examines strategies for controlling aflatoxin production in crops, including the development of crop resistance to aflatoxin by conventional breeding, genetic engineering, and other approaches. It also discusses the post-harvest management of aflatoxin in contaminated foods and feeds. This volume is an ideal resource for researchers and graduate students in a variety of biological, biomedical, and agricultural fields.
