摘要

Postbiotics, bioactive compounds derived from the fermentation of probiotics, are emerging as a promising solution for addressing the challenges posed by mycotoxin contamination in food and feed. Mycotoxins, such as aflatoxins, ochratoxins, and fumonisins, are toxic metabolites produced by various fungi that pose serious health risks to humans and animals. Traditional methods for mycotoxin removal often face limitations related to safety, nutrient loss, and high costs. In contrast, postbiotics offer a safe and effective alternative, as they do not require live microorganisms and can be produced using cost-effective methods. This review discusses the various types of postbiotics, including short-chain fatty acids and other bioactive metabolites, emphasizing their role in detoxifying mycotoxins through mechanisms such as adsorption and biodegradation. The potential applications of postbiotics in the food-pharmaceutical industry are explored, highlighting their ability to enhance food safety while promoting consumer health. By leveraging the benefits of postbiotics, it is possible to develop innovative strategies for mycotoxin management that align with current demands for safer food products.
