What symptom is mycotoxin toxic?

summary

The types of food poisoning in our life are not only caused by mycotoxins, but also by mycotoxins. There are many kinds of food poisoning. What are the symptoms of mycotoxin poisoning? Let me introduce you one by one.

What symptom is mycotoxin toxic?

(1) The occurrence of poisoning is related to some foods. By examining the suspected food or the excreta of the poisoned person, it can be found that there is a poisonous family, or strains of poisonous bacteria can be isolated from the food. The poisoning symptoms and pathological changes can be reproduced by selecting appropriate animal models.

(2) Mycotoxin poisoning usually occurs in different seasons and regions, but it is not infectious. If people and livestock and poultry ingest food containing a lot of mycotoxins at one time, it will lead to acute or subacute poisoning. If a small amount of people ingested for a long time, it will lead to chronic poisoning and cancer.

(3) Mycotoxin is a small molecule organic compound, not a complex protein molecule, which can not stimulate the body to produce the corresponding antibody and has no immunity.

matters needing attention

1. Remove moldy grain. Because the toxin is mainly concentrated in the moldy grain, any yellow green mold on the surface, or damaged, wrinkled, discolored, deteriorated peanuts and corn, may contaminate aflatoxin. Should be carefully selected before eating, remove moldy particles. 2. Improve the machining accuracy. When Aspergillus flavus was contaminated by rice, the toxin in rice mainly concentrated in the rice bran layer. If the brown rice was milled more finely and the rice bran layer was removed as far as possible, the toxin content in rice could be reduced. 54 ~ 72% of aflatoxins in maize are concentrated in cortex and embryo. If embryo is extracted during processing, most of aflatoxins can be removed. The content of aflatoxin in corn starch is only 1% of the original content.
