BACKGROUND: Biosorption using agricultural by-products has been proven as a low-cost and safe way to sequester mycotoxins. Few agricultural by-products have been studied for their efficacy in adsorbing simultaneously a large range of mycotoxins. The present work compared the ability of 51 agricultural by-products to adsorb mycotoxins from liquid mediums simulating physiological pH values, and it studied the mechanism for mycotoxin adsorption by isotherm adsorption experiments. CONCLUSION: This study confirms that some agricultural by-products can find technological applications as feed/food additives for mycotoxin reduction.
