An extensive review on the prevention of toxic effects of mycotoxins by non-nutritive
adsorbent compounds was presented by Ramos et al. (1996). Galvano et al. (2001) reviewed
dietary strategies to counteract the effects of mycotoxins, covering additional aspects
such as antiodixants or plant ingredients as possible protectants. Among all aluminosilicates
tested with regard to mycotoxin adsorption, hydrated aluminosilicate (HSCAS) have
been the most extensively studied and described, in particular because of their promising
aflatoxin binding capacity.
