AI Article Synopsis

Article Abstract

Molds are present in homes and other indoor places that are water damaged and they produce mycotoxins. One mold species can produce several different mycotoxins and one mycotoxin can come from several different molds. Even small amounts of mold growth in an air conditioner or in ducts will result in the occupants being chronically exposed, constantly breathing mold spores and mycotoxins, causing illness.

Mycotoxin contamination in cereals is a global food safety concern. One of the most common mycotoxins in grains is deoxynivalenol (DON), a secondary metabolite produced by the fungi and . Exposure to DON can lead to adverse health effects in both humans and animals including vomiting, dizziness, and fever.

Background: Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is a secondary metabolite produced by Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus. This toxin is highly carcinogenic and toxic, posing a serious threat to human and animal health. AFB1 primarily enters the human body through contaminated food, particularly peanuts, corn, nuts, and wheat.

3-Nitropropionic acid (3-NP) is a naturally occurring mycotoxin produced by various species of fungi and plants. However, the potential impact of 3-NP exposure on reproductive health remains unclear. To address this gap, we conducted an in vitro study to investigate the toxic effects of 3-NP on the developmental processes of mouse embryos.

Whole-grain foods (WGFs) constitute a large part of humans' daily diet, making risk identification of WGFs important for health and safety. However, existing research on WGFs has paid more attention to revealing the effects of a single hazardous substance or various hazardous substances on food safety, neglecting the mutual influence between individual hazardous substances and between hazardous substances and basic information. Therefore, this paper proposes a causal inference of WGFs' risk based on a generative adversarial network (GAN) and Bayesian network (BN) to explore the mutual influence between hazardous substances and basic information.
