Resumo
Mycotoxins present a great concern to food safety and security due to their adverse health and socio-economic
impacts. The necessity to formulate novel strategies that can mitigate the economic and health effects associated
with mycotoxin contamination of food and feed commodities without any impact on public health, quality
and nutritional value of food and feed, economy and trade industry become imperative. Various strategies have
been adopted to mitigate mycotoxin contamination but often fall short of the required efficacy. One of the
promising approaches is the use of bioactive plant components/metabolites synergistically with mycotoxinabsorbing
components in order to limit exposure to these toxins and associated negative health effects. In
particular, is the fabrication of β-cyclodextrin-based nanosponges encapsulated with bioactive compounds of plant
origin to inhibit toxigenic fungi and decontaminate mycotoxins in food and feed without leaving any health and
environmental hazard to the consumers. The present paper reviews the use of botanicals extracts and their
phytochemicals coupled with β-cyclodextrin-based nanosponge technology to inhibit toxigenic fungal invasion
and detoxify mycotoxins.
