Abstract
Lactic acid fermentation and lactic acid bacteria (mainly Lactobacillus and Streptococcus species) are widely recognized for their nutritional and health benefits, including the promotion of a balanced gut microbiota, improved digestion, and immune support. Nevertheless, intensive agricultural practices, unauthorized pesticide applications, and inadequate post-harvest and storage conditions frequently result in the occurrence of pesticide residues and mold-derived mycotoxins in crops, feeds and food products. The presence of these contaminants in food and feed poses a major food safety and public health challenge. According to the scientific literature, lactic acid bacteria play a crucial role in the inhibition of pathogens, the neutralization of toxins, and the degradation of chemical contaminants (e.g., pesticide residues). Various mechanisms (e.g., cell wall binding, production of antifungal metabolites, and enzymatic degradation) have been reported to contribute to the direct and/or indirect reduction of mycotoxin and pesticide residue levels. Owing to their broad enzymatic repertoire and diverse beneficial biological activities, lactic acid bacteria constitute a promising natural strategy for the detoxification of food contaminants including mycotoxins and pesticide residues, particularly in the context of large-scale food production and growing environmental pollution.
