This pertains to animal feed, but it's nevertheless very interesting:

-------------------------------------

In his 1984 paper, " Determining safe levels for mycotoxins " , P.B.

Hamilton, Professor of Poultry Science at North Carolina State

University concluded that " there are no safe levels for mycotoxins. "

The fact that he continued to work on these secondary fungal

metabolites and their effects on poultry metabolism and production

long after he made this now famous statement illustrates just how much

we had yet to learn about mycotoxins.

More than two decades later, Hamilton´s conclusions are still a

relevant topic for discussion.
