Descriptions

Mycotoxins are any toxins produced by fungi (molds, yeast, and mushrooms). Most analyses involve non-mushroom toxin, such as Alflatoxin, Ochratoxin A, patulin, or fusarium, which are contained in crops in various climate zones. Source: Regenstrief Institute

A mycotoxin is a toxic secondary metabolite produced by an organism of the fungus kingdom, including mushrooms, molds, and yeasts.] The term 'mycotoxin' is usually reserved for the toxic chemical products produced by fungi that readily colonize crops. Most fungi are aerobic (use oxygen) and are found almost everywhere in extremely small quantities due to the minute size of their spores. They consume organic matter wherever humidity and temperature are sufficient. One mold species may produce many different mycotoxins and/or the same mycotoxin as another species.
