Abstract

Abstract: This work focuses on the study of nanomaterial-based sensors for mycotoxins detection. Due to their adverse effects on humans and animals, mycotoxins are heavily regulated, and the foodstuff and feed stocks with a high probability of being contaminated are often analyzed. In this context, the recent developments in graphene-based electrochemical sensors for mycotoxins detection were examined. The mycotoxins' toxicity implications on their detection and the development of diverse recognition elements are described considering the current challenges and limitations. Highlights: Graphene-based nanomaterials (GBN) were used for the detection of mycotoxins. The recent developments of GM-based EC sensors are described for mycotoxins detection. GM-based EC sensors have high detection ability for detection of mycotoxins. Through electrode modification with GBN, the efficiency of mycotoxins detection sensors was significantly improved.
