In vitro evaluation of cytotoxicity and oxidative damage induced by ochratoxin A and aflatoxin B1: protective role of antioxidants

In animal nutrition, mycotoxins are important feed contaminants. Among them, ochratoxins (OTA) and aflatoxins (AF) have several biological activities, including acute toxicity, teratogenicity, mutagenicity, immunotoxicity and carcinogenicity (Creepy, 2002).
