- Food contamination, particularly from bisphenols (BPs), can adversely affect gut microbiota (GM) and intestinal health, with this study focusing on BPA and three BPs alternatives (BPS, BPF, TMBPF).
- The results showed that BPA, BPS, and BPF significantly disrupted the composition and metabolic profiles of GM, particularly decreasing the production of beneficial short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), while TMBPF had less disruptive effects.
- Additionally, although GM did not transform the BPs, it absorbed them, which reduced the BPs' estrogenic activity; however, the exposure to BPs resulted in decreased viability of intestinal epithelial cells (Caco-2), indicating possible harmful effects.
Cannabinoids are an important group of secondary metabolites found in the plant L. The growing interest in the use of hemp in food production (e.g.

The growth of FHB-associated species is often accompanied by biosynthesis of secondary metabolites─mycotoxins, which serve as a virulence factor. The aim of the study was to evaluate the ratios between deoxynivalenol (DON) and nivalenol (NIV) and their derivatives in the ears of six cultivars of winter wheat with varying resistance to FHB, taking into account a range of factors (weather conditions, location, cultivar, and year) after inoculation with , during a 3 year field experiment, 2018-2020.

This study reviews the information reported over the last few years on the toxic effects of the most relevant and studied toxins and their modified forms. Deoxynivalenol (DON) and its metabolites can induce intracellular oxidative stress, resulting in DNA damage.
