Strategies to Prevent Mycotoxin Contamination of Food and Animal Feed: A Review
TL;DR: Various control strategies to prevent the growth of mycotoxigenic fungi as well as to inhibit mycotoxin biosynthesis including pre-harvest (resistance varieties, field management and the use of biological and chemical agents), harvest management, and post-Harvest (improving of drying and storage conditions, theUse of natural and chemicalagents, and irradiation) applications are reviewed.

Mycotoxin detoxication of animal feed by different adsorbents.
TL;DR: The most applied method for protecting animals against mycotoxicosis is the utilization of adsorbents mixed with the feed which are supposed to bind the mycotoxins efficiently in the gastro-intestinal tract.
