Mycotoxins produced by Fusarium species are secondary metabolites with low molecular weight formed filamentous fungi generally resistant to different environmental factors and, therefore, undergo slow degradation. Contamination mycotoxins in cereals and millets is the foremost quality challenge food feed industry faces across globe. Several types of chemical preservatives employed mitigation process these mycotoxins, they help long-term storage; however, can be used only some extent, so complete elimination toxins from foods still a herculean task. The growing demand for green-labeled drives evade use chemicals production processes getting much demand. Thus, biocontrol important developing sector. world-spread contaminants naturally occurring commodities, food, feed. major produce deoxynivalenol, fumonisins, zearalenone, T2/HT2 toxins. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB), regarded as safe (GRAS), well-explored bacterial community preparations preservation ages. Recent research suggests that LAB best choice extenuating mycotoxins. Apart this review focuses on latest studies mechanisms how effectively detoxify remove through their various bioactive molecules background information molecules.
