Improper storage of these substrates, which most frequently occurs during the harvesting of vast masses of grain with high humidity', may cause the intense development of many species of mould fungi. In a number of cases, this is accompanied not only by changes in the chemical composition of the contaminated substrate and its pro-ceasing properties, but also by the accumulation of the toxic metabolytes (mycotoxins) of a number of fungi.
