Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites produced by several fungal species. They can contaminate human food and animal feed, and have been a threat for thousands of years. The gastrointestinal tract is the first target when ingesting mycotoxin-contaminated food or feed. As unlikely as it sounds, the investigations concerning the effects of mycotoxins on the intestine are still in their early stages. This book gathers the most recent advances related to the characterization of the intestinal toxicity of mycotoxins. Substantial data assembled on the damage caused to a number of histological structures and functions of the intestine remove any remaining doubt about this organ being a primary target for the toxicity of mycotoxins. An interesting overview of the detrimental effects of mycotoxins on the gut-hosted microbiota-now regarded as a fully-fledged organ associated with the gut-is also given. Finally, outstanding contributions in this book address questions relating to the suitability of current regulations to protect against alterations of the intestine, and to the efficacy assessment of new detoxification strategies using the intestinal toxicity of mycotoxins as a relevant endpoint.

Pour garantir et maîtriser la sécurité microbiologique des aliments et prévenir les crises sanitaires alimentaires, la connaissance et la surveillance des micro-organismes pathogènes depuis la production primaire jusqu'à la distribution des denrées alimentaires en passant par la transformation, sont indispensables. Cet ouvrage de référence traite des dangers microbiologiques alimentaires majeurs (micro-organismes infectieux ou toxines d'origine microbienne) et des risques associés pour l'Homme.Illustré de nombreux schémas et tableaux de synthèse, il fait un point complet sur les notions fondamentales de microbiologie générale, de physiologie microbienne et de modélisation, en les appliquant aux micro-organismes pathogènes des aliments et en y intégrant les dernières avancées. Il présente ensuite les outils de gestion du risque microbiologique mis en place au niveau européen et français. Enfin, les micro-organismes avérés ou émergents d'intérêt font l'objet de monographies claires et détaillées permettant de bien les connaître pour mieux les maîtriser. Cet ouvrage s'adresse aux managers, ingénieurs et techniciens des industries agroalimentaires (des secteurs qualité-hygiène, production, achats, recherche et développement...), aux professionnels du contrôle sanitaire et de la gestion du risque (laboratoires d'analyses et instances officielles) ainsi qu'aux enseignants-chercheurs et aux étudiants dans le domaine de la microbiologie appliquée à l'agroalimentaire et des risques sanitaires.
