Toxins | Free Full-Text | Metagenome Analysis Identifies Microbial Shifts upon Deoxynivalenol Exposure and Post-Exposure Recovery in the Mouse Gut

1. Introduction Fusarium fungi are world-wide producers of a range of mycotoxins. Deoxynivalenol (DON) belonging to the group B trichothecenes, is one of the most prevalent food-associated mycotoxins mainly produced by Fusarium graminearum and Fusarium culmorum, and frequently contaminates cereals and cereal products [1,2]. Almost half of a total of…
