• Mycotoxin problem in Africa: current status, implications to food safety and health and possible management strategies. (2008, background): “Because fumonisin B1 reduces uptake of folate in different cell lines, fumonisin consumption has been implicated in neural tube defects in human babies (Marasas et al., 2004).”
• Impact of mycotoxins on humans and animals (2011, background): “Masoud and Kaltoft (2006) reported in vitro inhibition of OTA production byA. ochraceus by three yeasts (Pichia anomala, Pichia kluyveri and Hanseniaspora uvarum).”
• Mycotoxigenic Fusarium species in animal feed (2007, background): “globosum from naturally infected maize kernels harvested in the Transkei region of South Africa, an area with abnormally high incidences of oesophageal cancer and neural tube birth defects correlated with higher levels of fumonisin contamination of maize (Marasas et al., 2004; Rheeder et al., 1992; ”
