Resumen: This review offers a comprehensive overview of mycotoxin research and related publications in Algeria, outlining key trends, existing challenges, and prospects for future advancement. Despite limited exploration of mycotoxins in Algeria, researchers have made significant progress in understanding mycotoxin contamination and its effects on food safety and public health. The review delves into both research achievements and the challenges encountered in resource-limited settings, while also exploring strategies employed to surmount these obstacles. Through an analysis of existing literature, key themes emerge regarding mycotoxin identification, detection methods, mitigation strategies, and their implications. The importance of collaborative efforts among academia and government agencies is underscored as pivotal in addressing mycotoxin-related challenges. Moreover, this review identified gaps in current research and offered recommendations for future investigations, aiming to advance mycotoxin research in Algeria and beyond.
