Abstract in brief

Aflatoxins are harmful mycotoxins produced by fungi in grain and feed, causing health risks to humans and animals, and leading to economic losses in food industries.
Microorganisms and enzymes offer environmentally friendly and highly specific methods for detoxifying aflatoxins, working effectively even at high temperatures.
The research reviews how these microorganisms break down aflatoxins, evaluates the safety of the degradation products, and explores their use as reliable biological strategies for detoxification.]
